The Essay Concerning Human Understanding is John Locke's most
important work, and through this selective commentary, first
published in 1970, Professor Yolton concentrates our attention on
the more interesting and controversial of the doctrines in it. His
method of interpretation is to ask very specific questions of the
text in order to test the propriety of the philosophical labels
traditionally applied to Locke, an approach which he believes
yields surprising results. He looks afresh at the various
discussions of essence, perception, scientific method, ethics and
meaning, and argues that throughout his epistemology Locke is more
concerned with problems of description and analysis than with those
of justification. This historical perspective is extended by the
discussion of issues in the Essay, which retain an independent and
philosophical interest.
