Argues that Spinoza treats the 'natural problem' of reconciling those who live by 'the dictates of reason' with those who live by 'the urgings of the passions'. This book fashions a 'theologico-political solution' to the 'natural problem' by holding that the 'universal religion' and the democratic liberalism of the treatise share a common purpose.
