The New Hume Debate - Revised Edition (Paperback, Revised Ed)

For decades scholars thought they knew Hume's position on the existence of causes and objects - he was a sceptic. However, this received view has been thrown into question by the 'new' readings of Hume as a sceptical realist.

For philosophers, students of philosophy and others interested in theories of causation and their history, The New Hume Debate is the first book to fully document the most influential contemporary readings of Hume's work. Throughout, the volume brings the debate beyond textual issues in Hume to contemporary philosophical issues concerning causation and knowledge of the external world and issue in the history of philosophy, offering the reader a model for scholarly debate.

This revised paperback edition includes three new chapters by Janet Broughton, Peter Kail and Peter Millican.

Contributors: Kenneth A. Richman, Barry Stroud, Galen Strawson, Kenneth P. Winkler, John P. Wright, Simon Blackburn, Edward Craig, Martin Bell, Daniel Flage, Anne Jaap Jacobson, Rupert Read, Janet Broughton, Peter Millican, Peter Kail.
