""A Discourse of Free Thinking"" is a book written by Anthony Collins in 1713. The book was written in response to the rise of a group called the ""Free Thinkers"", who were challenging the traditional religious beliefs of the time. Collins argues that free thinking is a necessary part of intellectual progress and that people should be free to question and challenge established beliefs. He also argues that reason and evidence should be the basis for beliefs, rather than blind faith. The book is considered to be an important work in the history of philosophy and has influenced later thinkers such as Voltaire and David Hume.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
