Description: Hume's Dialogues Concerning Natural Religion : Reader's Guide, Paperback by Pyle, Andrew, ISBN 082647568X, ISBN-13 9780826475688, Like New Used, Free shipping in the US Scratch any humanist from the eighteenth century onward and he or she will bleed Hume. Here one of the leading thinkers of his time and probably ours critiques the "argument to design," the project to prove the existence and properties of God from the phenomena of nature. Hume's strict empiricism leaves little room for a divine intelligence , and here Pyle (philosophy, U. of Bristol) explains the many reasons why along with their philosophical and historical contexts. Along with significant work about reading the text Pyle describes contemporary and more recent interpretations and responses by such as Hamann, Kant, Paley, Darwin and John Stuart Mill. The guide to further reading is well done, and this volume supports the well-known Gaskin edition. Annotation ©2007 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR ()
