"[an] extremely rich handbook, whose authors include some of the most notable Spinoza and early modern philosophy scholars ... By addressing one of the most complex and rich philosophers of his time, maybe of all times, this scholarship forces us to confront not only past interpretations of his philosophy but also to rethink certain philosophical categories and certain assumptions of what the job of philosophy is." -- Francesca di Poppa, Metascience

"Della Rocca's edited volume offers notable contributions to our understanding of Spinoza and his place in the history of philosophy. It will be a valuable resource for students and scholars alike... Della Rocca has assembled an admirable collection of essays. It deepens our understanding of Spinoza through significant contributions to current debates and close attention to Spinoza's sources and reception." --Journal of the History of Philosophy
