Widely regarded as the Father of Liberalism, John Locke was an English philosopher and one of the most influential of Enlightenment thinkers, following the tradition of Sir Francis Bacon. His work greatly affected the development of epistemology and political philosophy. Locke’s theory of mind is often cited as the origin of modern conceptions of identity and the self, figuring prominently in the work of later philosophers such as David Hume, Rousseau and Immanuel Kant. This comprehensive eBook presents Locke’s complete works, with numerous illustrations, rare texts appearing in digital print for the first time, informative introductions and the usual Delphi bonus material.
