Spinoza's brilliant metaphysical system was derived neither from reality nor experience. Starting from basic assumptions, with a series of geometric proofs he built a universe which was also God, one and the same thing, the classic example of pantheism. Although his system seems an oddity today, Spinoza's conclusions are deeply in accord with modern thought, from science (the holistic ethics of today's ecologists) to politics (the idea that the state exists to protect the individual). Both Spinoza's system and conclusions have compelling beauty unequaled in the history of philosophy.

In Spinoza in 90 Minutes, Paul Strathern offers a concise, expert account of Spinoza's life and ideas, and explains their influence on man's struggle to understand his existence in the world. The book also includes selections from Spinoza's work, a brief list of suggested readings for those who wish to delve deeper, and chronologies that place Spinoza within his own age and in the broader scheme of philosophy.

For Philosohy lovers and what are we doing here?

A fascinating story. Although, from the description, I suspect Spinoza was more of a panentheist than a pantheist. In any case, this intro to Spinoza made me keen to learn more. Given the apparent opacity of Spinoza's writing, I am sure this lively overview will prove helpful.

Entertaining and Enlightening

Would you recommend this audiobook to a friend? If so, why?

Yes, I would. This book was a great way to familiarize one-self with Spinoza quickly and efficiently.

What other book might you compare Spinoza in 90 Minutes to and why?

This question does not compute. Clearly audible made poor choices in outsourcing this website. lol

What does Robert Whitfield bring to the story that you wouldn’t experience if you just read the book?

WTF? this question is unanswerable.

If you could give Spinoza in 90 Minutes a new subtitle, what would it be?

I would not.

Any additional comments?

Again, great audio book, straight to the point and useful.

Straight to the point!

Author has a knack of finding humor in right places, without sounding pompous or cocky. 90 minutes is a good introduction. Most of others ‘ xxx in 90 minutes’ are good too

Short and a hint of humor

The clarity of the speaker.

This is a good introduction to Spinoza's life and work. Reading his work will be easier since we already can place them within the context of his time and life.

Interesting, clear and enticing
