Description

Explore the foundational concepts of modern philosophy with Hume on Causation from the Problems of Philosophy series. Published by Routledge, this work examines the core ideas that shaped how we understand the relationship between events. This text covers the regularity theory of causation, which suggests that causal relations exist when certain types of events are consistently followed by others. It also addresses the influential perspective that the world appears to us as a series of unconnected events. Readers will engage with the concept of inductive skepticism and the problem of induction. This involves the challenge of providing a justification for making inferences from observed regularities to unobserved ones. This book is an essential resource for those studying the history and philosophy of science, offering a deep look into these classic philosophical positions.
