Monism : Science, Philosophy, Religion, and the History of a Worldview (Palgrave Studies in Cultural and Intellectual History)

The first survey in the English language of the history of naturalistic monism in the works of Haeckel, Spinoza, and others. Contributors demonstrate that, to a greater extent than previously shown, monism provided an essential epistemological framework for numerous religious, political and cultural movements between the 1840s and 1940s.
