by George Orwell, Caleb Graham, Caleb Graham ...

Ethics (Summarized Edition)

Enriched edition. A Rationalist exploration of metaphysics, human nature, and moral principles through the geometric method of 17th-century Spinozism

by Baruch Spinoza, Caleb Graham, Caleb Graham ...

Translated by R. H. M. Elwes ...
