Book excerpt: Takes in turn the three dimensions of Leibniz's metaphysics with the goal of providing a unified treatment of them. Argues that his notion of indirect representation, though largely ignored by scholars, is crucial for understanding the metaphysics of the continuous and the spatio-temporal. Also throws light on the interconnections between his realms of the real, the phenomenal, and the ideal. Among specific topics are perception, density and sequential or Cauchy completeness, and the formalization of the third model as it refers to the density of monadic and phenomenal change.
