The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Reid

'The Cambridge Companion to Thomas Reid is easily the best guide yet to Reid's thought as a whole. Every aspect of Reid's philosophy is covered, from his epistemology and account of perception, through his studies of testimony and memory, to this theory of action and his moral philosophy, and further on still to his philosophy of religion and philosophy of art.'
