      abstract = {This book examines the philosophical and scientific  achievements of Sir Kenelm Digby, a successful English  diplomat, privateer and natural philosopher of the  mid-1600s. Not widely remembered today, Digby is one of the  most intriguing figures in the history of early modern  philosophers. Among scholars, he is known for his attempt  to reconcile what perhaps seem to be irreconcilable  philosophical frameworks: Aristotelianism and early modern  mechanism. This contributed volume offers the first  full-length treatment of Digby's work and of the unique  position he occupied in early modern intellectual history.  It explores key aspects of Digby's metaphysics,  epistemology, and philosophical method, and offers a new  appraisal of his contributions to early modern natural  philosophy and mathematics. A dozen contributors offer  their expert insight into such topics as Body, quantity,  and measures in Digby's natural philosophy Ecumenism and  common notions in Digby Aristotelianism and accidents in  Digby's philosophy Digby on body and soul Digby on method  and experiments This book volume will be of benefit to a  broad audience of scholars, educators, and students of the  history of early modern science and philosophy.},
