| In his autobiography, David Hume famously noted that A Treatise of Human Nature â fell dead-born from the press.â Yet it is now widely regarded as one of the greatest philosophical works written in the English language. Within, Hume offers an empirically informed account of human nature, addressing a range of topics such as space, time, causality, the external world, personal identity, passions, freedom, necessity, virtue, and vice. This edition includes not only the full text of the Treatise but also Humeâ s summarizing Abstract, as well as selections drawn from critical book reviews which showcase the workâ s reception in Humeâ s own time. Angela Coventryâ s expert introduction and annotations serve to contextualize the bookâ s themes and arguments for modern readers. |
