This is an abridgement of the complete translation of the New Essays, first published in 1981, designed for use as a study text.

The result is the single most important confrontation between the philosophical traditions of rationalism and empiricism. It makes an extremely suitable focus for the study of Leibniz''s thought and of those two traditions in relation to one another. Less
