Revered for his contributions to empiricism, skepticism, and
ethics, David Hume remains one of the most important figures in the
history of Western philosophy. His first and broadest work, A
Treatise of Human Nature (1739 40), comprises three volumes,
concerning the understanding, the passions, and morals. He develops
a naturalist and empiricist program, illustrating that the mind
operates through the association of impressions and ideas. This
companion features essays by leading scholars that evaluate the
philosophical content of the arguments in Hume's Treatise while
considering their historical context. The authors examine Hume's
distinctive views on causation, motivation, free will, moral
evaluation, and the origins of justice, which continue to influence
present-day philosophical debate. This collection will prove a
valuable resource for students and scholars exploring Hume, British
empiricism, and modern philosophy."
