Part of the new material in this edition arose out of Locke's exchange with the young Irish scientist, William Molyneux, with whom he corresponded in the late 1680's and 1690's. This included the celebrated problem originally proposed by Molyneux in a letter to Locke in 1688 (first published by Locke here in Book 2): if someone born blind had learned to distinguish a globe and a cube by touch alone, and was then given sight, would that person be able to determine purely by sight which one was which? Both Locke and Molyneux thought that he or she would not. Further changes included the entire recasting of the section 'Of Power' dealing with freedom, and the addition of a new chapter 'Of Identity and Diversity', in which Locke equated personal identity with continuity of consciousness, and not with continuity of any spiritual substance.This is the second issue, with Awnsham as the printer (the first issue 'Printed for Thomas Dring...').
