David Hume (1711-76) is one of the greatest figures in the history of British philosophy. Of all of Hume's writings, the philosophically most profound is undoubtedly his first, "A Treatise on Human Nature." "Hume on Morality" introduces and assesses: Hume's life and the background of the "Treatise"; the ideas and text in the "Treatise"; and Hume's continuing importance to philosophy. James Baillie provides us with a map to Books 2 and 3 of the "Treatise," focusing on Hume's theory of the passions and morality. This book sets out its principal ideas and arguments of the "Treatise" in a clear and readable way and is ideal for anyone coming to Hume's work for the first time. |
