Antonio Negri, one of the world¿s leading scholars on Baruch Spinoza (1632¿1677) and his contemporary legacy, offers a straightforward explanation of the philosopher¿s elaborate arguments and a persuasive case for his ongoing relevance. Responding to a resurgent interest in Spinoza¿s thought and its potential application to contemporary global issues, Negri demonstrates the thinker¿s special value to politics, philosophy, and related disciplines. Negri¿s work is both a return to and an advancement of his initial affirmation of Spinozian thought in The Savage Anomaly. He further defends his understanding of the philosopher as a proto-postmodernist, or a thinker who is just now, with the advent of the postmodern, becoming contemporary.
