Opis

"This work is essential for the philosophical assessment of Hume's contributions to our understanding of what moral agency is....It is written in a manner that is constantly sensitive to the philosophical perplexities that lie in wai for each position that the author, and Hume, considers, and it demonstrates, if anyone still needs this, just how resourceful Hume's moral theory is, even when judged in the light of our contemporary debates."--Ethics

Recenzje

subtle and illuminating ... His detailed analysis of Hume's arguments raises issues of interpretative and more general philosophical interest throughout, and even where one might be inclined to dispute his account of Hume there is much to be learned
