Books in the The Edinburgh Edition of Thomas Reid series

This new edition of Reid's classic philosophical text in the philosophy of mind at long last gives scholars a complete, rigorously edited text of the Inquiry with full critical apparatus in paperback.

The fullest, most original presentation of the philosophy of Common Sense, accompanied by manuscript lectures on the nature and immortality of the soul, a helpful introduction and editorial annotation.

Brings together, for the first time, a significant number of Reid's manuscript papers on natural history, physiology and materialist metaphysics.

This volume presents a collection of Reid's published and unpublished work on 'the culture of the mind', including his important essay on Aristotle's logic, which was corrupted in older editions and is now restored to Reid's favoured edition.

Thomas Reid might not have published much on politics, but his manuscripts reveal that he was deeply concerned with social, political and economic issues throughout his career. Published here for the first time, Reid's Glasgow lecture notes and his papers to learned societies in Aberdeen and Glasgow show that he was an acute commentator on contemporary politics and that his theoretical ideas framed solutions to some of the practical political and economic problems of his day.
