This is quite simply an incredible introduction to Hume's Enquiry. The author supplies necessary background information (starting with Ancient Greek Scepticism) and argues that Hume is not the Pyrrhonist or the Empiricist that he is often depicted as. On the contrary, he argues that Hume considers himself extending the beliefs of Cicero and the Academic Sceptics in light of Newtonian science. Furthermore, he argues that the Enquiry should not be regarded as a "pop" effort, watered-down version of the Treatise, but that it is a unified, intelligent, mature expose of Hume's ideas on human morality.
