First English edition. This is one of the first books Norris published. "Norris John 1657–1712 Church of England clergyman and philosopher was born on 2 January 1657 at Collingbourne Kingston Wiltshire the third surviving child of John Norris bap. 1614 d. 1682 and his wife Elizabeth d. 1696. His father was vicar of Collingbourne Kingston under the Commonwealth and he moved to the living of Aldbourne Wiltshire in 1660. Norris was educated at Winchester College and entered Exeter College Oxford in 1676. A keen student at both Winchester and Oxford he early abandoned his inherited Calvinism and concentrated his reading on Platonist authors. On graduating BA in 1680 he was appointed a fellow of All Souls by Archbishop Sancroft on the recommendation of Thomas Jeames the warden during a dispute with the fellows over the filling of the vacancies in the college.

Norris's writings have tended to be neglected by historians of philosophy partly perhaps because of Locke's dismissive attitude and partly because many of his theories are so close to those of Malebranche that it is difficult to disentangle their influence.

In the history of English thought he is a transitional figure. In contrast to the Cambridge Platonists he adopted wholeheartedly the Cartesian dualism of mind and matter. His theory of knowledge was a Cartesian Platonism similar to that of Malebranche to whose more developed theories he was at times too inclined to defer.
