Synopsis

In his day, Hume was acknowledge as the finest philosopher in Europe. Yet "the greatest mind Scotland has ever produced" remained for many years unrecognized. He bore his obscurity and apparent failure with the same good-hearted sanity as his penetrating and down-to-earth philosophy. The "Virgin Philosophy" series covers the lives and ideas of the major philosophers, attempting to clarify the mysteries of philosophy for the general reader.
