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.

有人说,休谟主要的贡献在于对因果关系和归纳法的怀疑上,对于人性的理论就显得平淡无奇。这里无非是指观念和印象的划分。其实,全书是一个逻辑严密的演绎体系,而观念与印象的划分起到的就是笛卡尔“我思故我在”的逻辑起点的作用。 即使在心理学积淀空前丰富的今天,...
评分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...
评分休谟的这本书我主要关心他如何考虑了人的知识形成。其他关于自由以及神迹部分不感兴趣。 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 考察对象 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 考虑两类研究对象:第一是观念的关系,第二是实际的事情。前者是纯粹靠人的思考就可以进行。最典型的是数...
评分这本书确实是一本很小的小册子,但正是这个小册子,造成了人类认知领域的一个革命。 这个小册子,可以认为是「人性论」的一个微缩读本。Hume把他很多思想的精髓部分完整的在这里面表达出来了。 Hume在这本书里面论述的东西非常完整,并且一以贯之。使用他最后总结的那句话来统...
评分休谟的怀疑论完全以他否定归纳原理为依据,证明了纯粹经验主义不是科学的充足基础,归纳是一个独立的逻辑原理,是从经验或从其他逻辑原理都推论不出来的,没有这个原理,便不会有科学。 彻底的经验主义带来的两个推论 1,所有的知识都只具有一定限度内的确定性,世界并不如我们...
a stupendous philosophical book with insightful discussions of empirical epistemology on vital ideas like free will, miracles, the Design Argument, and mitigated scepticism, explaining skeptical doubts concerning the operations of the understanding, and building the framework of how modern people understand their knowledge and the way it's acquired
评分Empiricism
评分三观没有问题,还有点萌萌哒。
评分David Hume是为数不多的写作水平不错阅读流畅思考的有意思的Early Modern Philosopher啊
评分For Class, Hume's Philosophy of Religion. We can only learn from experience. A priori reasoning is wrong because we could make inferences from constant conjunctions of two similar objects
