Description

Explore the profound philosophical legacy of Thomas Reid (1710-96) through this scholarly examination of his moral epistemology. As a founding figure of the Scottish School of Common Sense Philosophy, Reid's original thinking shaped nineteenth-century American thought and anticipated the work of major twentieth-century philosophers like Moore and Wittgenstein. This volume by William Davis examines Reid's unique perspective on how we acquire ethical knowledge. Rather than relying on abstract speculation, Reid argues that knowing about ethics comes from having good evidence provided by a sense-like moral faculty. After a period of relative neglect, Reid's work is seeing a global resurgence in interest, making this a timely addition to any collection of British philosophy. Perfect for students and scholars of epistemology and ethics, this book provides a clear look at how Reid's legal foundations and moral faculties contribute to our understanding of right and wrong. It serves as an essential resource for those studying the history of philosophy and the development of common sense theory.
