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.

吕大吉这个新译本是1999年出版的。估计是因为很多人都说原来关文运的译本很差,所以商务推出了这个新译本。但是很奇怪,新译本断货后,现在市面上重印的又变成关文运的旧译本了。搞不懂这是为什么。难道是新译本不如旧译本?估计不太会,因为否则的话,当初出新译本时商务...
评分一 休谟给自己写的自传中说,自己不喜欢学法律,也尝试了经商,但是毫无兴趣,唯一的热爱,在于思考哲学和一般学问。老王说,每个人一生都有一个主题。休谟就是哲学沉思,就像苏格拉底的探索知识,笛卡尔、康德和斯宾诺莎也是如此。或许我也是如此,因为我在别的很多工作或生活...
评分一直告诫自己莫要“以己之混混而令人之昭昭”,很少推荐书。但是今天读完大卫.休谟的《人类理智研究》,真心觉得是本好书。虽然是本哲学著作,但是休谟本人优美畅达(限于吕大吉的译本)的文辞,深入浅出,阅读中一点也不觉得他是在说很枯燥的哲学问题。我觉得大学生无论文理,...
评分既然想知道hume’s account of induction是否force him to account of causation,那么我们首先必须看他的论证过程: 因为归纳法不能被理性证明,所以归纳不属于理性的职能。 因为我们关于matters of fact的一切知识都是归纳得来的 又我们关于matters of fact的一切知识...
