He subdivides each chapter into manageable chunks and provides easy to follow subheadings ("Hume's Conception of Philosophy and Its Methods," "Moral Sense in Hutcheson's Philosophy") designed to cue students to the topic currently under discussion. Wright is aware of his charge, and his book has several attractive features that should make it a suitable introduction to the Treatise. Volumes in this series assume "no philosophical background knowledge" and should "be suited to introductory university-level courses." Each book is supposed to "guide readers through the main arguments" of the philosophical text in question, while "dealing with issues of interpretation." They are also supposed to provide some insight into the relevant philosophical context within which the book was written as well as an appreciation of its reception. This book is a recent addition to Cambridge's "Introductions to Key Philosophical Texts" series, which offers "introductory textbooks" on philosophical classics. ![]() ![]() The appeal of good competent men doing a good job in demanding circumstances, surrounded by aįantastic natural world.
