Title: Desire and affect
Description: "The present book is meant to express the diversity of interpretation of Spinoza's theory and to examine critically the relevance of Spinoza's ideas to contemporary issues and debates (in philosophy, psychology, and even economics). Donald Davidson's essay, which offers a "Davidsonian" version of Spinoza's view of the affects and the mind-body relation, provides one such contemporary interpretation.

The book also contains other attempts to reinterpret Spinoza in light of later problems and insights."--BOOK JACKET.
