Reviews

This volume is a singular achievement in its unique combination of depth and breadth. The range is dazzling and is not sacrificed for quality - the volume is exemplary for its mix of established and excellent younger scholars as well as drawing on contributors from a wide range of subjects. Although there are many collections on Hume this one really is a must. Aaron Garrett, Boston University, USA
