Book Description:

W. J. Mander presents a much-needed study of the English philosopher/theologian John Norris (1657-1711), unjustly neglected by historians. Best known today as a critic of John Locke, Norris incorporated ideas of Augustine, Malebranche, Plato, the Cambridge Platonists, and the scholastics into an original synthesis, highly influential in his day.
