Description
George Berkeley is one of the most prominent philosophers of the 18th century. His Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge is a focal point for the understanding of empiricist thought and the development of 18th-century philosophy. This volume introduces and assesses: Berkeley's life and the background to the Principles ; the ideas and text in the treatise; and Berkeley's continuing importance to philosophy. The book should be valuable reading to those students not familiar with Berkeley. Review: A useful introduction to Berkeley's thought. -Darren Hibbs, University of Tennessee at Chattanooga, Philosophy in Review
