An Introduction to the Philosophy of Spinoza by Henry E. Allison

It's have to be one of the worst secondaries that I touched about a philosopher. It doesn't explain everything clear. Neither It does give you new content. is the first Allison's book that I read. It has problems to explain Spinoza in a clear manner. And that is coming from Allison one of the top scholars in Kant philsophy. Hope the rest Allison's books in Kant doesn't dissapoint me like this one.
