In the course of the book, Roger Woolhouse provides a systematic treatment of the central metaphysical views of these important and interrelated philosophers, considering their areas of agreement and disagreement. Going beyond the conventional classification of the three as `The Rationalists', he explores their accounts of what is real and how this lies at the heart of their philosophies. In particular, he shows how they provided the conceptual foundation to the seventeenth-century science of mechanics.
