Publisher's Synopsis
The True Intellectual System of the Universe is a philosophical work written by Ralph Cudworth, an English philosopher, in the 17th century. The book is divided into three volumes, with the third volume being the final installment. In this volume, Cudworth explores the concept of the soul and its relationship to the universe. He argues that the soul is not a material substance, but rather a spiritual entity that is connected to the divine. Cudworth also discusses the nature of God and the universe, and how they are interconnected. He delves into various philosophical concepts, including free will, determinism, and the nature of reality. The book is considered a classic of early modern philosophy and is widely studied by scholars today.1820. Part Three of Four.
