The philosophic search for truth has been evident in all ages and
among all peoples. The developments of each generation require new
philosophies and the recasting of old ones. The eighteenth century
was no exception, and the scientific advances of the times brought
about many innovations in philosophic thought. At a time when
scientists were reducing certain phenomena of the natural world to
expressions of a few simple mathematical laws, men such as
Berkeley, Hume, and Kant were trying to discover how far and on
what basis human reason could be applied with similar success in
other fields. The selections in this book, preceded by short
biographical sketches, document this philosophic search. "The
selections are liberal and well chosen, indeed only an examination
of the table of contents will give an adequate idea of the value of
this volume. . . . How better can one become a modern thinker than
by reading and studying at first hand the writings that have made
modern thought possible?"--Roger W. Holmes," The Philosophical
Review"
