"This elegant volume makes a strong case for the historical importance, and intrinsic interest, of materialism in seventeenth century English philosophy Duncan's book is an important new contribution...In conclusion: there is a welcome directness, and charity, even humility, throughout this concise volume. Duncan clearly knows his stuff; but there is no boasting or exaggerated theorizing. He hews closely to the texts and draws only modest
conclusions, when no more is justified. Like Locke himself, Duncan appreciates the immense difficulty of the materialism question, and does not pronounce more than is warranted. This makes for an edifying and
generous study, which might be returned to often by scholars and students of early modern European metaphysics." -- Philosophy in Review
