This first volume gathers George Berkeley's philosophical writings from 1705 to 1721, including his commonplace book and early works on vision, knowledge and perception. Edited with a life and annotations by Alexander Campbell Fraser, it offers a clear path into Berkeley's empiricism and his arguments for immaterialism.
