Description

This book explores theories about learning in the history of philosophy, with a particular focus on ancient thought. It examines whether our knowledge arises solely from experience or if we possess innate knowledge as well.

The author offers a comprehensive comparison of different theories over an extensive period, making this work accessible to both students and professionals in the field. The book also delves into seventeenth-century discussions of innate knowledge and its connections to ancient ideas.
