The Principles of Moral and Christian Philosophy – Volume 1. Natural Law & Enlig

Very good and fresh copy, with small signs of wear. (due to production). / Volume 1. / Born in Scotland in 1698 and ordained into the Church of England in 1739, George Turnbull was a key figure in the Scottish Enlightenment. He taught moral philoso- phy at Marischal College, Aberdeen, where one of his pupils was Thomas Reid, who became the main representative of the Scottish school of common-sense philoso- phy. Editor Alexander Broadie notes that Turnbull was "the first of a long line of Scottish moralists to speak explicitly about the introduction of the experimental method of reasoning into moral subjects." Turnbull's Principles of Moral and Chris- tian Philosophy (1740) brings together moral philosophy, science, and theology in a distinctive synthesis.
