Summary
This work provides a novel interpretation of Spinoza's Ethics, and his views on the human mind in particular, by showing how the text-both as a whole and in a multitude of details-is motivated by the twofold notion that subjective experience is explainable and that its successful explanation is of ethical relevance, because it makes us wiser, freer, and happier.
Note
Translated from the German.
