Review: Great version of a must read - I quite enjoyed reading this version of David Hume's Enquiry, it was my very first time sitting down with this and I cannot recommend this book enough to any student of the philosophy of mind and metaphysics. Hume is charming in his wit and impressive in his arguments, especially in the infamous chapter " Of Miracles ", which is present in this writing. I came out disagreeing with his empiricism, but I have the utmost respect for him as a philosopher and any individual lucky enough to acquire this text will surely come to understand why.
Review: Exactly what I expected - I like the product, it is very well made. I used it to write a research paper about miracles. What Hume believed and wrote about in section X makes me very sad, and how angry the concept of miracles made him. No wonder Kant had to salvage philosophy after Hume had wreaked havoc upon it.

*by L***L on May 18, 2015*

Hume mah dawg, his theory of the association of ideas made the whole philosophical community hate so hard they were fittin' to ride on their enemies fo' like a quarter millenia. Hume's criticism of tha abstrusity of dat weak-sauce ivory tower mess opened up my eyes. Phizzle-osophy aint of no use to no mahfs. if it's written to be exclusionary and nizeedlessly abstract. Kant on some weak stuff with his candy refusing to get on my man Hume's level and spittin it so real mahfs could track. Causality some bull-ish to. Inductive posteriori-zzle knowledge straight up weak next to the the realness of the sense-impressionizzle you would feel when the righteous power of Hume's pimp hand finds you and your candy.
