Excerpt from Hume As the title of the Series shows, these 'Philosophical Classics for English Readers' are written, not so much for the initiated, as for those who wish to know something about the great Systems, and their Founders; but who have not leisure to peruse their Treatises in full, or to go into the more recondite aspects of the questions they have raised, still leas to master the voluminous critical literature which has subsequently gathered around them. Probably an increasing number of such readers feel that, as all human knowledge reposes on First Principles - of which Philosophy is the exposition and explanation - some acquaintance with the Speculative Thought of the world is indispensable to every one who would avoid superficiality, or escape from illusion. It is for such that these "short studies on great subjects" are intended. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
