Berkeley's A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge: An Introduct

Description: Berkeley's A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge by P.J.E. Kail Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Paperback Condition Brand New Description This highly readable and lucid introduction to Berkeleys Principles of Human Knowledge covers all the major topics in Berkeleys work, and provides a substantial, but lively, account of its historical context. The book deals with topics such as abstract ideas, immaterialism, God and reality, science, mathematics, the self and action. Publisher Description George Berkeleys Principles of Human Knowledge is a crucial text in the history of empiricism and in the history of philosophy more generally. Its central and seemingly astonishing claim is that the physical world cannot exist independently of the perceiving mind. The meaning of this claim, the powerful arguments in its favour, and the system in which it is embedded, are explained in a highly lucid and readable fashion and placed in their historical context. Berkeleys philosophy is, in part, a response to the deep tensions and problems in the new philosophy of the early modern period and the reader is offered an account of this intellectual milieu. The book then follows the order and substance of the Principles whilst drawing on materials from Berkeleys other writings. This volume is the ideal introduction to Berkeleys Principles and will be of great interest to historians of philosophy in general. Author Biography Dr P. J. E. Kail is University Lecturer in the History of Modern Philosophy, University of Oxford and Fellow and Tutor in Philosophy at St Peters College, Oxford. He is co-editor with Marina Frasca-Spada of Impressions of Hume (2005) and author of Projection and Realism in Humes Philosophy (2007).
