Price: $144.00
The aim of the volume is to publish a selection of the most significant contributions on a topic that, although central to Locke’s thought, lacks a cross-cutting look that touches on various disciplines that not only interested the philosopher, but were also central themes analysed in his works. The selection will present the most innovative research on John Locke’s thought on epistemology and various sciences and will collect studies on aspects of his philosophy and political thought. Some chapters will be devoted to the philosopher’s ideas on chemistry, botany, economics, etc. in the 17th and 18th centuries.
