John Locke, one of the greatest English philosophers of the late 17th and early 18th centuries, in his masterpiece Treatise on Human Understanding argues that our knowledge rests on experience and is obtained as such mainly through the senses, but the message that his thought conveyed was unfortunately misunderstood. In this book John Dunn shows how Locke came to outline his theory of knowledge and how his elaboration of the liberal values of tolerance and responsible governance came to be central ti the thought of Enlightenment Europe of XVll century.
