Review Quotes:
"Spinoza's political thought has not nearly received the attention it deserves. This thorough and highly readable guidebook is thus a very welcome addition to the literature, and the perfect place to start the study of Spinoza's important and still relevant views on the state, religion, and toleration." - Steven Nadler, University of Wisconsin-Madison, USA
