Books by Leslie Stephen

In this two-volume work from 1876, Leslie Stephen (1832-1904) examines the revolution in thought that he believed had occurred in the eighteenth century due to the deist controversy. Volume 1 contains an account of the deism debate and discusses the work of philosophers such as Descartes, Locke and Hume.

This two-volume work, first published in 1896, brings together lectures given by Sir Leslie Stephen to various ethical societies, mostly in London. A broad range of ethical issues, including the role of such societies, politics, social equality, heredity, and crime and punishment, is discussed.
