John Locke was Isaac Newton's best friend. As Newton developed Calculus and Law of Gravity, Locke built the foundation of modern liberalism, political theory, and economics.

Locke had a huge impact on the social contract and liberal theories and on the development of both epistemology and physical philosophy. American Declaration of Independence is strongly influenced by his ideology. His concepts of identity later influenced Rousseau and Voltaire along with many other Enlightenment scholars and American Revolutionaries.

This book of An Essay Concerning Human Understanding is John Locke's most important work. He described the mind at birth as a blank slate filled later through experience. The essay was one of the principal sources of empiricism in modern philosophy, and influenced many enlightenment philosophers including David Hume and George Berkeley.

This is a must-read book for readers who are interested in empiricism founded by John Locke, one of the greatest tinkers on the planet.
