Zusammenfassung:This book presents a comprehensive vision of human life, ecology, and theology inspired by Spinoza. According to this vision, human beings and all other natural entities are not independent substances but are rather "modes" of nature, meaning that they are fleeting manifestations of nature’s conatus.
