James Beattie's most important work of philosophy, first published in 1770 and reprinted frequently. While it was celebrated in its time and influenced continental philosophers such as Kant, the book quickly earned enemies, namely David Hume, and its legacy lies squarely now in the history, rather than development, of philosophy. Owner mark inked to title in an early hand: "Jordan Harrison's Book".
