...intellectual challenges of their day. The landscape of Europe—and of the entire globe—has dramatically changed since the correspondence of Leibniz, Arnauld, and Malebranche took place; most ideas that were dangerous for them to disseminate, such as an adherence to Cartesian philosophy, no longer hold the same risks. But in reproducing the debate that was at the center of 17th-century scholasticism, Nadler not only recalls the arguments that the three philosophers made but also recreates the rigor and the intellectual curiosity with which they approached the fundamental questions of their time.

...president's words were presumably timed to remind America's newly-elected president that Moscow still matters. But Medvedev's threats are not quite as tough as they might sound. The Kozelsk Division consists of 46 missiles built in 1979. The weapons have now been in service three times longer than planned and the harsh truth is that Russia is struggling to build the next generation long-range missiles...
