Moore, and Philosophical Papers stands as a definitive testament to his rigorous intellectual legacy. This landmark collection gathers Moore's most significant essays, tackling some of the most enduring and contested problems in philosophy — from the nature of perception and sense-data to the foundations of ethical theory and the defence of common sense against sceptical attack. Written with Moore's characteristically careful, methodical prose, each paper rewards close reading, drawing the reader into sustained arguments that challenge assumptions held across centuries of philosophical tradition.\n\nMoore's celebrated defence of common sense and his work on the nature of the external world positioned him as a pivotal counterweight to idealism, and his influence on Bertrand Russell and Ludwig Wittgenstein alone cements his place in the philosophical canon. Published as part of the prestigious Muirhead Library of Philosophy, this collection presents Moore at his most intellectually formidable — a thinker who believed that clarity of thought was itself a philosophical achievement. For anyone serious about understanding the roots of twentieth-century analytic philosophy, this volume is nothing short of essential.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130698768603,"sku":"2026100007971-SECONDHAND","price":65.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/e63b69fa-5dcf-42a3-b3a0-7534b6e3b602.png?v=1786588804","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007971-secondhand-philosophical-papers","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
