ESSAYS OF MULTIPLE SORTS is a not entirely forgivable foray into bits and pieces of serious horsing-around on some very verbal kinds of levels. The main possible defect or deficiency, stylistically, could be in terms of some somewhat quirky uses of, as well as some very "special" nonuses of, commas. Aggregately, the aggregated matter might seem (if not instructive) marvelously fruity and fruitful-or such. [[The opening offered item is perhaps quotidian and bizarre dialogue (({X: Your shoes resemble mine. Y: Mine are like yours. Z: Mine are close kin to any. A: Why are we awaiting a decidedly large doom? B: Since when were we doing that? X: Footwear is nothing. Y: Indeed!})), whereas the final item really might seem to be sincerely praising a very recent Rock Star.]]

This book analyzes the foundation of human knowledge and understanding. Locke describes the mind at birth as a blank slate (tabula rasa) filled later through experience. The essay was one of the principal sources of empiricism in modern philosophy, and influenced many enlightenment philosophers, such as David Hume and George Berkeley. Book I of the Essay is Locke's attempt to refute the rationalist notion of innate ideas. Book II sets out his theory of ideas, including his distinction between passively acquired simple ideas, such as "red", "sweet", "round", etc., and actively built complex ideas, such as numbers, causes and effects, abstract ideas, ideas of substances, identity, and diversity. Book III is concerned with language and Book IV with knowledge, including intuition, mathematics, moral philosophy, natural philosophy ("science"), faith, and opinion.
