This title presents a concise and coherent overview of Locke, ideal
for second- or third-year undergraduates who require more than just
a simple introduction to his work and thought. John Locke is a
clear and lucid writer who wrote on many subjects and founded many
new schools of thought. Yet, while his work is not impossible to
read, his thought is sufficiently subtle, complex and intricate
that he can be agonizingly hard to follow, presenting students of
philosophy with a number of difficulties and challenges. "Locke: A
Guide for the Perplexed" is a clear and thorough account of Locke's
philosophy, his major works and ideas, providing an ideal guide to
the important and complex thought of this key philosopher. The book
covers the whole range of Locke's philosophical work, offering a
thematic review of his thought, together with detailed examination
of his landmark text, "An Essay Concerning Human Understanding".
Geared towards the specific requirements of students who need to
reach a sound understanding of Locke's thought, the book provides a
cogent and reliable survey of his life, political context and
philosophical influences, and clearly and concisely reviews the
competing interpretations of the Essay. This is the ideal companion
to the study of this most influential and challenging of
philosophers. "Continuum's Guides for the Perplexed" are clear,
concise and accessible introductions to thinkers, writers and
subjects that students and readers can find especially challenging
- or indeed downright bewildering. Concentrating specifically on
what it is that makes the subject difficult to grasp, these books
explain and explore key themes and ideas, guiding the reader
towards a thorough understanding of demanding material.
