Focusing on an extreme form of monism, the book presents a robust defense that denies all distinctions, echoing the ideas of pre-Socratic philosopher Parmenides. It engages critically with historical contexts while addressing contemporary metaphysical trends, philosophy of action, epistemology, and philosophy of language. The author seeks to challenge and overturn the prevailing methods and content of modern philosophy, advocating for a rationalist approach infused with skepticism.

Benedict de Spinoza (1632-77) was one of towering philosophers of the seventeenth century. Offering an introduction to Spinoza's philosophy, this book takes Spinoza's fundamental argument that everything exists for a reason - known as his 'principle of sufficient reason' - as the key to unlocking his thought.
