This book argues that for many pagan, Jewish, Christian and Muslim philosophers there was no meaningful distinction between philosophy and religion until the Enlightenment. It also offers a new interpretation of Spinoza's take on religion that reveals the extent to which it is rooted in medieval Muslim and Jewish philosophy.
