Alciphron, or the Minute Philosopher (1732) is Berkeley's main work of philosophical theology and a crucial source of his views on meaning and language. This edition contains the four most important dialogues and a selection of critical essays and commentaries reflecting the response of such writers as Hutcheson, Mill and Antony Flew. The only single edition currently in print, it argues that Alciphron has a more important place both in the Berkeley canon and in early modern philosophy than is generally thought.
David Berman is Senior Lecturer in Philosophy and Fellow of Trinity College, Dublin. His publications include A History of Atheism: From Hobbes to Russell (1990) and a number of works on Berkeley. He is editor of the Berkeley Newsletter.
