Overview
Principles of Human Knowledge is a work of 1710 empiricist philosopher George Berkeley. Mainly, this book tries to refute the positions of his contemporary John Locke about the nature of human perception. Although, like all empiricist philosophers, both Locke and Berkeley agreed that there is an external world, and this world is causing the ideas that one has in his mind, Berkeley tried to prove that the outside world is also composed only ideas. Berkeley did suggesting that ideas can only resemble ideas: the mental ideas that we possess can only resemble other ideas (not physical objects) and thus the external world does not consist in a physical form, but rather ideas . This world receives logic and regularity by some other force, which Berkeley concluded that it was God.
