This book reimagines one of history's most rigorous rationalists as a thinker for our age. This accessible, argument-driven book shows how Leibniz's metaphysics-monads, complete concepts, and a careful taxonomy of necessity-can sustain a powerful, humane account of moral responsibility: one that preserves intelligible reasons for action, protects individual dignity, and still admits genuine alternatives. Moving from metaphysical foundations through moral psychology to practical politics, the book turns abstruse debates about providence and determinism into clear guidance for punishment, forgiveness, civic education, and criminal justice reform. Written for scholars, policy-makers, and thoughtful readers, the book combines close textual reading with contemporary relevance. It argues that Leibniz offers a middle way between harsh fatalism and untethered voluntarism-an approach that vindicates praise and blame while insisting that institutions cultivate clearer perception, proportional sanction, and real avenues for rehabilitation. Provocative, humane, and timely, this work makes a compelling case that recovering Leibniz's modal subtlety can reshape modern conversations about freedom, responsibility, and the moral limits of state power.
