Paul Russell is one of the two or three leading Hume scholars of the past quarter-century, and both the high quality of his work and the intrinsic interest of his themes will draw in a wide range of readers-including not only scholars of Hume and British empiricism (for whom it will be essential), but scholars of modern philosophy more generally, as well as practicing epistemologists and ethicists.
Paul Russell is a Professor of Philosophy at Lund University (Sweden), where he also serves as Director of the Lund Gothenburg Responsibility Project (LGRP).
