David Hume's An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding, first published in 1748, is a concise statement of Hume's central philosophical positions. It develops an account of human mental functioning which emphasizes the limits of human knowledge and the extent of our reliance on (non-rational) mental habits. It then applies that account to questions of free will and religious knowledge before closing with a defence of moderate scepticism. This volume, which presents a modified version of the definitive 1772 edition of the work, offers helpful annotation for the student reader, together with an introduction that sets this profoundly influential work in its philosophical and historical contexts. The volume also includes a selection of other works by Hume that throw light on both the circumstances of the work's genesis and its key themes and arguments.

评分有人说,休谟主要的贡献在于对因果关系和归纳法的怀疑上,对于人性的理论就显得平淡无奇。这里无非是指观念和印象的划分。其实,全书是一个逻辑严密的演绎体系,而观念与印象的划分起到的就是笛卡尔“我思故我在”的逻辑起点的作用。 即使在心理学积淀空前丰富的今天,...
