The Notions of George Berkeley is a major event in Berkeley studies. For no commentator before Hill has gotten as close to Berkeley on this crucial subject, or shown how encompassing it is in Berkeley’s philosophy. * David Berman, Emeritus Fellow and Professor of Philosophy, Trinity College Dublin, Ireland * A textually moored, historically contextualized and philosophically sophisticated reconstruction of Berkeley's puzzling doctrine of notions, our knowledge of ourselves, our acts, relations, number, virtue and God. Hill persuasively explains why Berkeley is part-empiricist and part-rationalist, and why his positive ontological views, not only his well-known immaterialism, deserve a closer look. * Samuel C. Rickless, Professor of Philosophy, University of California San Diego, USA *
