This volume is comprised of a series of essays whose purpose on one hand is to exhibit a tolerable sketch of the human mind; and, aided by the lights which the poet and orator so amply furnish, to disclose its secret movements, tracing its principal channels of perception and action, as near as possible, to their source: and, on the other hand, from the science of human nature, to ascertain, with greater precision, the radical principles of that art, whose object it is, by the use of language, to operate on the soul of the hearer, in the way of informing, convincing, pleasing, moving, or persuading. The Contents are divided into the following three Books: "The Nature and Foundations of Eloquence"; "The Foundations and Essential Properties of Elocution"; and "The Discriminating Properties of Elocution".

Campbell argues that rhetoric is the art of persuasion, and that it is based on a deep understanding of human nature. He also discusses the different types of rhetoric, such as demonstrative, deliberative, and judicial.The second part of the book focuses on the principles of rhetoric. Campbell outlines the different techniques and strategies that can be used to persuade an audience, including the use of logic, emotion, and style. He also discusses the importance of adapting one's rhetoric to the audience and the context in which it is being delivered.The final part of the book deals with the application of rhetoric. Campbell provides examples of how rhetoric can be used in various contexts, such as politics, law, and religion. He also discusses the ethical considerations that should guide the use of rhetoric.Overall, The Philosophy of Rhetoric is a comprehensive and influential work that has had a lasting impact on the study of rhetoric.
