1732Best.-Nr. GEN2-D-1London: J Roberts 1732. Cloth. Very Good. 7.5" by 5". None. An interesting and scarce text reviewing George Berkeley's text. The work is a letter whereby an English clergyman is writing to his London friend on his views of Alciphron or The Minute Philosopher. This is the second edition of this text. The Minute Philosopher is a philosophical dialogue by Irish philosopher George Berkeley. In this work he combats the arguments of the free-thinkers such as Mandeville and Shaftesbury against the Christian religion. The work was first published in 1732 the same year that this review was published. Although there is not an author attributed to the title page it was later known that the title was written by John Hervey or 2nd Baron Hervey of Ickworth. John Hervey was an English courtier political writer and memoirist. He was known for writing very brutally frank works such as his memoirs of the court of George II where he gave a very unflattering account of the King and Frederick Prince of Wales.
