Treatise Of Human Nature, Volume 1

by David Hume

This book, published in two volumes called "books" by the author, is a treatment of everything from the origin of our ideas to how they are to be divided. It includes important statements of Scepticism and Hume's experimental method. Part 1 deals with the nature of ideas. Part 2 deals with the ideas of space and time. Part 3 deals with knowledge and probability. Part 4 deals with skeptical and other systems of philosophy, including a discussion of the soul and personal identity. (Summary by Wikipedia)This is a recording of Volume I (or Book 1). Volume II (which contains Books 2 and 3) is also available as a Librivox audiobook.
