Hume’s ‘Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding’: A Reader’s Guide

Alan Bailey (University of Wolverhampton, UK),Dan O'Brien (Oxford Brookes University, UK)

David Hume is widely considered to be the greatest British philosopher and his Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding is the most frequently studied of all his works - a key text in the study of empiricist thought. This is a hugely important and exciting, yet challenging, piece of philosophical writing.

In Hume’s Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding: A Reader’s Guide, Allen Bailey and Dan O'Brien explain the philosophical background against which the book was written and the key themes inherent in the text. The book then guides the reader to a clear understanding of the text as a whole, before exploring the reception and influence of this classic philosophical work. This is the ideal companion to study of this most influential and challenging of texts.
