"Pauline Phemister’s The Rationalists is a
well-regulated account of three great seventeenth-century
“system builders”, replete with illuminating contrasts
and comparisons."
Roger Woolhouse, University of York
"Pauline Phemister’s comparative study of Descartes,
Spinoza and Leibniz is an important contribution to the
historiography of philosophy as well as a delight to read. The
central issues of seventeenth-century metaphysics, including the
nature of substance, ideas, God, mind and body, causality and
freedom, are treated in depth and with exemplary lucidity. This is
simply the best and most comprehensive survey of rationalism
available."
Catherine Wilson, City University of New York
