John Locke’s Essay "Concerning Human Understanding" is a philosophical landmark originally published in 1689. One of the principal sources of empiricism in modern philosophy this essay presents a detailed systematic philosophy of mind and thought and wrestles with fundamental questions about how we think and perceive and it touches on how we express ourselves through language logic and religious practices. In the introduction entitled 'The Epistle to the Reader' Locke describes how he became involved in his current mode of philosophical thinking. He relates an anecdote about a conversation with friends that made him realize that men often suffer in their pursuit of knowledge because they fail to determine the limits of their understanding.
