The extraordinary breadth and depth of Leibniz's intellectual vision commands ever
increasing attention. As more texts gradually emerge from seemingly bottomless archives,
new facets of his contribution to an astonishing variety of fields come to light.
This volume provides a uniquely comprehensive, systematic, and up-to-date appraisal
of Leibniz's thought thematically organized around its diverse but interrelated aspects.
Discussion of his philosophical system naturally takes place of pride. A cluster of
original essays revisit his logic, metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of nature,
moral and political philosophy, and philosophy of religion. The scope of the volume,
however, goes beyond that of a philosophical collection to embrace all the main features
of0Leibniz's thought and activity. Contributions are offered on Leibniz as a mathematician
(including not only his calculus but also determinant theory, symmetric functions,
the dyadic, the analysis situs, probability and statistics); on Leibniz as a scientist
(physics and also optics, cosmology, geology, physiology, medicine, and chemistry);
on his technical innovations (the calculating machine and the technology of mining,
as well as other discoveries); on his work as an 'intelligencer' and cultural networker,
as jurist, historian, editor of sources and librarian; on his views on Europe's political
future, religious toleration, and ecclesiastical reunification; on his proposals for
political, administrative, economic, and social reform. In so doing, the volume serves
as a unique0cross-disciplinary point of contact for the many domains to which Leibniz
contributed. By assembling leading specialists on all these topics, it offers the
most rounded picture of Leibniz's endeavors currently available
