Starting with Berkeley by Nick Jones
George Berkeley (1685-1753) was one of the most important and influential philosophers in the history of Western thought. This book provides a detailed overview of Berkeley's philosophy, an interpretation of his arguments, and the opportunity for the reader to critically engage with Berkeley's philosophical moves.
"Does the world need more monographs on major philosophers? It does when they are as well written as the ‘Starting with' series.. In addition to lucid discussions of Berkeley's life and writings, Jones includes tips and strategies for analyzing philosophical arguments... Summing up: Recommended" -Choice
