Review: "Leibniz is a major figure in western philosophy and, with Descartes and Spinoza, one of the most influential philosophers of the Rationalist School. This Routledge Philosophy GuideBook guides the reader through the complexities of Leibniz's most famous work and the fullest statement of his mature philosophical thought, the Monadology. Anthony Savile clearly identifies the intellectual assumptions that underlie Leibniz's thought and locates the text within Leibniz's larger philosophical project." "Leibniz and the Monadology is a clear and engaging introduction to one of the finest systematic thinkers of the modern era. It is essential reading for all students coming to Leibniz for the first time."--Jacket
