Opis

This book, first published in 1987, offers a reconstruction of Berkeley’s doctrine on notions by examining the implications of his repeated suggestion that there is a close relationship between his doctrine and his semantic theory. The study casts important light on modern philosophical concerns as well as on Berkeley’s thought.
