Antony Flew

Hume's Philosophy of Belief (Routledge Revivals)

A Study of His First 'Inquiry'

• Broschiertes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

First published in 1961, this book considers Hume's request to be judged solely by the acknowledged works of his maturity. It focuses on Hume's first Inquiry in its own right as a separate book to the likes of his other works, such as the Treatise and the Dialogues, which are here only used as supplementary evidence when necessary.
