Review of Metaphysics 32 (3):575-576 (1979)

Abstract

Yolton’s preface to this volume of selections begins: "Readers of Locke tend to approach his thought through single books, not from a knowledge of the range of his writing." The belief that this piecemeal approach is more common in Locke’s case than with other major philosophers, as well as more damaging since it tends to obscure "the systematic connections in his thought," is what lies behind this attempt to put together a coherent set of passages representative of Locke’s wide-ranging philosophy.
