Larry M. Jorgensen provides a systematic reappraisal of Leibniz's philosophy of mind. He argues that Leibniz's theological commitments yielded a thoroughgoing naturalizing methodology, according to which the properties of an object are explicable in terms of the object's nature, and that this led him to a fully natural theory of mind.

Larry M. Jorgensen is an Associate Professor and Chair of the Philosophy Department at Skidmore College. His main research is in early modern philosophy, with a primary focus on Leibniz's philosophy of mind and, more generally, on the development of the uniquely modern conception of consciousness that developed during the seventeenth century. He has recently developed a secondary line of research into the ethics of forgiveness and reconciliation.
