It remains one of the most important statements of British empiricism and one of the defining texts in the history of epistemology.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHume asks what the human mind can truly know, how ideas arise from experience, why people believe in cause and effect, and whether reason can justify the assumptions on which ordinary life depends. His famous discussion of miracles, his analysis of necessary connection, and his sceptical account of induction helped reshape philosophy and later forced Immanuel Kant to confront what Kant called his \"dogmatic slumber.\" Written with clarity, irony, and intellectual discipline, \u003cem\u003eAn Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding\u003c\/em\u003e is essential reading for students of philosophy, Enlightenment thought, scepticism, empiricism, philosophy of religion, and the history of ideas.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 116\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.28 x 9 x 6 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 05, 2008\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45721500549203,"sku":"9781604595376","price":24.01,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/9731\/2595\/files\/UrekWq80aO9781604595376.webp?v=1783881259","url":"https:\/\/the-stone-owl-bookstore.myshopify.com\/products\/an-enquiry-concerning-human-understanding-paperback-2","provider":"The Stone Owl Bookstore","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
