David Hume (1711–1776) is widely regarded as the greatest and most influential of the English-speaking philosophers. The range of his contributions is considerable: covering issues of metaphysics and epistemology, mind and emotion, morality and politics, history, economics, and religion. Although there is little debate about the importance and significance of Hume’s philosophical contributions, there is, nevertheless, considerable debate about the interpretation of his overall philosophical achievement as well as his particular aims and intentions with respect to the specific topics he addresses. Beyond this, there is also considerable disagreement about the critical assessment or plausibility of the various arguments and positions that Hume advances. This collection aims to provide a comprehensive set of analyses and assessments of the key components and aspects of Hume’s philosophical work. The contributions are drawn from among the leading figures of contemporary philosophy and Hume scholarship with a view to providing readers not only with an understanding of the core themes and features of Hume’s philosophy but also with a clear view of the central debates concerning the interpretation and assessment of Hume’s philosophy at the present time. This volume constitutes the most substantial and ambitious collection devoted exclusively to Hume’s philosophy.

"This book is a collection of papers that are concerned with major figures and central topics in the history of early modern philosophy. Most of these papers are concerned with the philosophy of David Hume, one of the great figures in the history of philosophy. The contents of this collection are divided into five parts. The contributions are placed and arranged under the headings of metaphysics, free will, ethics, religion, and the general interpretation of Hume's philosophy. Among the various figures considered, other than Hume, are Thomas Hobbes, Baruch Spinoza, Nicolas Malebranche, Pierre Bayle, John Locke, George Berkeley, Samuel Clarke, and Adam Smith. Taken together, they present the reader with a substantial and significant set of interconnected and overlapping observations and insights relating to matters and figures of the greatest importance in early modern philosophy. As such, this collection not only provides some very different perspectives on the subject, it also shows how these otherwise dispersed and fragmented concerns and interests are relevant to each other, as well as to various topics in contemporary philosophy. The collection includes a previously unpublished paper on Hume's atheism and another paper on Adam Smith's views on religion and ethics that has not been previously published in English"--
