Reseña del editor:
These notes of G. E. Moore's lectures for the three terms of 1934-1935 were compiled by Alice Ambrose, then Student of Newnham College, and Margaret Macdonald, then Fellow of Girton College. The lectures cover a wealth of interrelated topics, and provide instances of the analyses which made Moore -the father of the analytic school.- Since his analyses of such concepts as material objects, sense data, and truth rest on the ordinary use of expressions for these concepts, -ordinary language- philosophers found in him their champion. Moore examines the views of Broad, Russell, F. P. Ramsey, W. E. Johnson, and John Wisdom."
