Leibniz.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis guide enriches the reader's understanding of Leibniz by establishing the philosophies of, and Leibniz's reactions to, his most important philosophical contemporaries from Descartes to Malebranche. While addressing current philosophical research in Leibniz studies such as his metaphysics, logic and theory of free will, a leading team of experts in the field demonstrate that Leibniz's work was wider in scope. Examining new directions in this field they cover a number of Leibniz's concerns outside of philosophy including mathematics, physics, and the life sciences. The \u003ci\u003eCompanion\u003c\/i\u003e concludes by offering analysis of Leibniz's legacy; his impact on further study, particularly on his successor Immanuel Kant, and how he has subsequently been understood.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eTogether with extended biographical sketches and an up-to-date and fully comprehensive bibliography, \u003ci\u003eThe Bloomsbury Companion to Leibniz\u003c\/i\u003e is an extremely valuable study tool for students and scholars interested in Leibniz and the era in which he wrote.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eBrandon C.
