		Anne Conway is known to be the author of a single treatise of philosophy.

	Anne Conway, Viscountess Conway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Anne Conway, Viscountess Conway and Killultagh ( 14 December 1631 â“ 1679) was an English philosopher whose work, in the tradition of the Cambridge Platonists, was an influence on Leibniz.
		Her stepbrother, John Finch, was educated at Cambridge, and Anne Finch (as she then was) came into contact with one of his tutors, the Platonist Henry More.
		In this book, Conway was concerned to offer a critique of the philosophy of Thomas Hobbes, RenÃ© Descartes, and Baruch Spinoza, as well as to develop a theodicy â“ a reconciliation of the evil nature of the world, and especially of widespread suffering â“ with the existence of an omnipotent, omnniscient, benevolent creator.

	Sarah Hutton - Anne Conway: A Woman Philosopher - Reviewed by Karen Detlefsen, University of Pennsylvania - ...
		Indeed, the suffering Conway underwent as a result of her health colors her philosophy as is evident in both her substance monism, and in her (yet to be discussed) theodicy: "Throughout her correspondence, the most frequent occasion for expressions of religious convictions is Anne Conway's ill health.
		Anne Conway like Leibniz was a vitalist, and, like him, she elaborated her vitalism as a monadology.
		Conway's theodicy is based in part in the non-determinism of individual creatures, while Leibniz is forced to grapple with the thoroughgoing determinism of created individuals.
