Abraham Tucker (1705-74) was an important British moral philosopher whose life's work was The Light of Nature Pursued. Including a short biography of Tucker, it was first published posthumously and was a part of the intellectual ferment out of which utilitarianism emerged. Tucker's eighteenth-century work, which focused on developing Locke's ethics, metaphysics and philosophy of mind, would have a profound influence on nineteenth-century writers such as William Paley.
