This volume sets Berkeley's philosophy in its historical context. It provides selections from works that deeply influenced Berkeley as he formed his main doctrines (by Descartes, Malebranche, and Locke); works that illuminate the philosophical climate in which those doctrines were formed (by Regius, Lanion); and works that display Berkeley's subsequent philosophical influence (by Leibniz, Baxter, Hume, Voltaire, Kant, and Mill).
