Drawing on Reid’s work on the geometry of the visible and tangible, Daniels examines the philosophical foundations of perceptions, the relationships among sensory experience, spatial understanding, and belief, and how Reid’s insights challenge both sceptical and representational theories of mind that dominated early modern philosophy. The book situates Reid within broader debates about realism and empiricism, making it a significant contribution to scholarship on Reid and the history of philosophical realism.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"I H Pentz Booksellers","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":46735465873570,"sku":null,"price":200.0,"currency_code":"ZAR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0364\/4047\/3732\/files\/IMG_20260413_114341_e598870f-ee2b-4c36-a11e-dac9890a2264.jpg?v=1776090815","url":"https:\/\/pentzbooks.co.za\/products\/thomas-reids-inquiry-the-geometry-of-visibles-and-the-case-for-realism-by-norman-daniels","provider":"I H Pentz Booksellers","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
