As Harris shows, in his "Essay concerning Humane Understanding" (1690), Locke seeks to give an accurate account of what experience shows about the nature of human freedom.
He changes his mind as to how best to understand the experience of freedom, as he seeks to accommodate objections made by Molyneux and van Limborch.
A representative sample can be given of criticisms of Locke on the part of later writers confused and dissatisfied by Locke’s attempt to develop a theory of freedom that does not involve the will’s indifference.
