8vo, pp. [xvi], 295; an attractive copy in contemporary panelled calf, spine nicely gilt, with morocco label (upper joint cracked). Fourth edition: first published in 1699, with a reissue in 1700, and a new edition later that same year. Thomas Baker (1656-1740) was a non-juror whose attitude to learning was coloured by his sense of its inadequacy: he believed that revelation was the only safe guide to salvation. As his biographer in new DNB points out, the book was touched a chord among contemporary readers, as it went through eight editions before 1760. Baker is well known to collectors of old books, too, because after his expulsion from St John's College Cambridge in 1717 (he having refused to take the oath of abjuration), whenever he wrote his name in one of his books, he added 'Coll: Jo: socius ejectus'.

Baker argued against pluralism's claim that God would not creat lifeless worlds. In this work: "There cannot . be any absurdity in saying that all things were created for the sake of this inferior World, and the inhabitants there of, and they that have such thoughts of it, seem not to have consider'd, who it was that died to redeem it.". Very Good binding.

Very good. "In 1699, the Cambridge non-juror, Thomas Baker, had published anonymously his Reflections Upon Learning. Among his critical correspondents was John Woodward, the Professor of Physic at Gresham College. Baker has attempted to criticize the shortcomings of all human learning, in order to emphasize the importance of a whole-hearted belief in revelation." âÂÂ" J.E. Force, R.H.

Condición: Good. 8vo contemporary dark tan sprinkled leather with gilt red spine title label gilt dentelles [edges worn/hinges cracked but covers held by all cords] Titlepage +A2-8 [=Preface + Contents +Addenda/Advert.] +240pp The first six leaves with marginal worming affecting only the running headline of the preface and repaired with reversible transparent PAPER-tape.The last gathering with worm-holes to fore-edge margin have similar worming but have not been repaired as they are less obtrusive. There is some foxing or browning throughout with approx eight charming pointer-hands in the margins and about six marginal notes all by one owner in a near contemporary script. An interesting and rather critical enquiry into the Languages, philosophy,Astronomy, History, Geography, Law, Medicine, oriental teachings etc The author's conclusion is that learning is in great part purely imaginary knowledge and mankind's ignorance is great because all learning is imperfect only Divine truths through Revelation are certain. 1 volume. Hardcover.

8vo, pp. [xvi], 288, contemporary calf, rebacked, spine blocked in blind. A contemporary hand identifies Baker as the author on the title-page. Baker's very popular work gave succour and comfort to those who found the new discoveries and innovations in science and philosophy, mostly notable those of Locke and Newton, likely to displace the role of faith in religion. Baker essentially argues that empirical reasoning and knowledge can never produce the certainty found in revelation.
