Synopsis: David Hume dominated the intellectual life of Britain in the mid-eighteenth century and John Stuart Mill occupied the same commanding position in the mid-nineteenth century. Between these two great figures lies a century of talented but now neglected philosophers. They include David Hartley, the originator of physiological psychology in Britain, Abraham Tucker, the ingenious philosophical squire, Thomas Reid, the first well-known exponent of the Scottish philosophy of Common Sense, and Joseph Priestly, still remembered for his scien-fific work on electricity and gases, and for his controversy on free will with Richard Price. The century also includes an array of distinguished Scotsmen-Dugald Stewart, Thomas Brown, James Mill, and James Ferrier - who for half a century helped to make their country the cultural leader of Europe and an important influence in the formative years of many American colleges and universities.
