Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 05 Oct 2015).

Gassendi's life and times -- Gassendi's philosophical opponents -- Skepticism, perception, and the truth of the appearances -- Cognition, knowledge, and the theory of signs -- Space and time -- Atoms and causes -- Bodies and motion -- Generation, life, and the corporeal soul -- The metaphysics of body -- Faith, reason, and the immaterial soul.

This book offers a comprehensive treatment of the philosophical system of the seventeenth-century philosopher Pierre Gassendi. Gassendi's importance is widely recognized and is essential for understanding early modern philosophers and scientists such as Locke, Leibniz and Newton. Offering a systematic overview of his contributions, LoLordo situates Gassendi's views within the context of sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century natural philosophy as represented by a variety of intellectual traditions, including scholastic Aristotelianism, Renaissance Neo-Platonism, and the emerging mechanical philosophy. LoLordo's work will be essential reading for historians of early modern philosophy and science.
