Book Overview

A New Theory of Vision and Other Select Philosophical Writings is a collection of essays by George Berkeley, a prominent philosopher of the 18th century.

Other essays in the collection explore Berkeley's views on metaphysics, epistemology, and theology, including his rejection of the concept of material substance and his belief in the existence of God. The book provides an in-depth look at Berkeley's philosophical ideas and their impact on the development of modern philosophy. This edition of the book was originally published in 1922 and includes an introduction by the editor, Luce, and a bibliography of Berkeley's works.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
