Hume Illustrated: 2nd Edition

Scottish philosopher David Hume¿turned historian¿was born in 1711 in Edinburgh. He died in August 1776. For many, his concepts and debates on the science of man are still relevant. He made himself even more popular by arguing that what governs human behavior is desire and not reason. He was interested in experimental philosophy in moral matters, and said there is a big difference between "ought" and "is.".
