Publisher's Synopsis
The articles in this volume all concern, in one way or another, Hume's epistemology and metaphysics. There are discussions of our knowledge of causal powers, the extent to which conceivability is a guide to modality, and testimony; there are also discussions of our ideas of space and time, the role in Hume's thought of the psychological mechanism of 'completing the union', the role of impressions, and Hume's argument against the claim that our perceptions are 'locally conjoined' with any entity (namely, a soul). ------------ The authors: Brian Ball, Helen Beebee, Angela M.
