Beginnings of a post on Spinoza

Spinoza was very influenced by Descartes.... who was also of course a mathematician - Cartesian Co-ordinates......

He set himself the bold task of working everything out - as many philosophers do..... And as most prominently his recent predecessor Descartes did.

He used geometry and geometric principles.........
.... to create an entire system of The Universe and Humanity and Human Emotions.....

Surprisingly successful he was too....
