具体描述

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.

【按语：发表于1748年的《人类理解研究》是休谟改写《人性论》的第一部分的结果。思想较为简洁：知觉有印象以及观念（印象的摹本）两种；事实的推论都基于因果关系，而因果关系仅仅是基于经验的习惯。深入分析必然性（necessity）观念，发现这不过是经验到的物象的恒常会合（co...
