Samenvatting

This lucid study of the foundation of Hume's system differs from other books on the subject by steering a middle course between two popular but extreme views: that Hume's relies exclusively on a theory of meaning and that he relies exclusively on a theory of truth and evidence. Unlike other studies, too, Pears concentrates on the first book of Hume's Treatise, which is where his ideas were presented in a fresh and undiluted form. Hume is essential reading for all students of philosophy, and the book covers several topics which are encountered on a philosophy course (see market).
