Hume's Science of Human Nature

Více o knize

Hume's scientific methodology is reexamined through a contemporary lens, presenting him as a scientific realist. The author, Landy, posits that Hume advocates for the use of theoretical representations of unobservable entities to elucidate the regularities observed in experience. This perspective challenges traditional interpretations and emphasizes the importance of theoretical frameworks in science, suggesting that Hume's insights remain relevant in understanding the nature of scientific inquiry.
