A Treatise Concerning the Principles of Human Knowledge

This new edition of Berkeley's Principles of Human Knowledge has been designed especially for the student reader.

The text is supplemented by a comprehensive introduction, an analysis of the text, a glossary, detailed notes, and a full bibliography with guidance on further reading.
