The contents investigate the individual in Leibniz’s thought, early accounts of substance, unity and identity, and the role of hylomorphism and substantial form without matter. Further chapters address affects and activity, presumption and action, corporeal substances as monadic composites, and monads motivating substantial forms.","The New Synthese Historical Library  \nAdrian Nita Editor  \nLeibniz’s Metaphysics and Adoption of Substantial Forms  \nBetween Continuity and Transformation  \nThe New Synthese Historical Library  \nTexts and Studies in the History of Philosophy Volume 74  \nEditor-in-Chief  \nSimo Knuuttila, Helsinki University  \nAssociate Editors  \nDaniel Elliot Garber, Princeton University Richard Sorabji, University of London Miira Tuominen, University of Jyväskylä  \nEditorial Consultants  \nJan A.
