An Essay Concerning Human Understanding, Book IV Of Knowledge And Probability by John Locke (1632 - 1704).
This is the fourth book of John Locke's Essay Concerning Human Understanding. His book deals with knowledge and probability. He asks how far knowledge can go, if there are universal propositions, what are judgment and probability and deals with faith, reason and enthusiasm. "Locke's review of the different sorts of ideas, or appearances of what exists, that can be entertained in a human understanding, and of their relations to words, leads to Locke's review of the different sorts of ideas, or appearances of what exists, that can be entertained in a human understanding, and of their relations to words, leads to an investigation of the extent and validity of the Knowledge that our ideas bring within our reach; and into the nature of faith in Probability, by which assent is extended beyond Knowledge, for the conduct of life." (from the introduction) (Soupy)

Hi Pam

I suppose I could help readers find their sections since the book is composed ot two books :D


The link takes you to books 3 and 4 of Locke's Essays.

Your first line is: Our Knowledge conversant about our Ideas only.
last line is: . But because the memory is not always so clear as actual perception, and does in all men more or less decay in length of time, this, amongst other differences, is one which shows that DEMONSTRATIVE knowledge is much more imperfect than INTUITIVE, as we shall see in the following chapter.

which is the end of chapter 1

Hi Craig,

Section 1 should be 14:24, rather 4:24.

Thanks,
