Abstract: |
This book discusses three topics, in the company of three philosophers: meaning, causality, objectivity; Locke, Berkeley, Hume. These 'central themes' are the only large philosophical areas on which each of these philosophers had a good deal to say. Berkeley says almost nothing about innate ideas, or about personal identity, but my real reason for omitting these empiricist themes is that I have nothing worthwhile to say about them. |
