A Review of Berkeley's Theory of Vision

More about the book

First published in 1842, this landmark work is a devastating critique of the influential Irish philosopher George Berkeley's theory of vision. Written by an acclaimed philosopher and economist, it provides a detailed analysis of Berkeley's argument that our perception of the world is entirely dependent on our visual experience. It also offers a powerful rebuttal of Berkeley's core claims, arguing that they are based on a flawed understanding of the nature of perception and the relationship between mind and matter.
