Editorial Reviews:

Product Description
1729. This work contains two treatises: concerning beauty, order, harmony, design, and concerning moral good and evil. There is no part of philosophy of more importance than a just knowledge of human nature and its various powers and dispositions. The author presents these papers as an inquiry into the various pleasures which human nature is capable of receiving. Due to the age and scarcity of the original we reproduced, some pages may be spotty, faded or difficult to read. Written in Old English.

4 out of 5 stars Available editions, strange flags   January 4, 2007
Hutcheson's work is important for the history of aesthetics and empiricism, and therefore it is wonderful to find an inexpensive edition of his works, which languished in library-only authoritative editions and Grove reprints. The apparatus and introduction to this edition is good, if limited, and serviceable, but the oddity comes in the form of the publisher. Liberty Fund publishes this volume, and you may well guess their agenda. The work is part of their "Natural Law" series. Someone forces Wolfgang Leidhold to turn the discussion of the work toward its role in Revolutionary America and its importance to the idea of "Lockean" natural law.

Hutcheson is not particularly invested in the revolutionary ideas that Locke had licensed, but the publishers want him to be, and Leidhold complies with their wishes to the degree that Hutcheson will allow.

If you feel funny about giving money to the "Liberty Fund" so much that you would deprive yourself of a good, portable Hutcheson text, then so be it. For myself, I am pleased that I have a chance to own a pivotal philosophical text on a poor scholar's budget.
