James Collins is Professor of Philoso­phy, St. Louis University, past President of the Metaphysical Society of America and the American Catholic Philosophi­cal Association. His most recent book is History of Philosophy in the Making.

"The aim of this book is to examine Spinoza's novel (and heretical) view of God as nature [which] is infused into ev­erything else that Spinoza has to say on physics, physiology, psychology Scrip­tural exegesis and its social conse­quences, and political theory. . . . For Spinoza to have created a philosophy of the whole which yet retains its articula­tion of parts, was a signal contribution to the history of thought. And for a book written in our time to explicate fully, de­liberately, and clearly this contribution is itself an important addition to the scholarly thinking of the late twentieth century."—from the Foreword
