Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: DISPUTES with men, pertinaciously obstinate in their principles, are, of all others, the most irksome; except, perhaps, those with persons, entirely disingenuous, who really do not believe the opinions they defend, but engage in the controversy, from affectation, from a spirit of opposition, or from a desire of showing wit and ingenuity, superior to the rest of mankind. The same blind adherence to their own arguments is to be expected in both; the same contempt of their antagonists; and the same passionate vehemence, in inforcing sophistry and falsehood. And as reasoning is not the source, whence either disputant derives his tenets; it is in vain to expect, that any logic, which speaks not to the affections, will ever engage him to embrace sounder principles. Those who have denied the reality of moral distinctions, may be ranked among the disingenuous disputants; nor is it conceivable, that any human creature could ever seriously believe, that all characters and actions were alike entitled to the affection and regard of everyone. The difference, which nature has placed between one man and another, is so wide, and this difference is still so much farther widened, by education, example, and habit, that, where the opposite extremes come at once under our apprehension, there is no scepticism so scrupulous, and scarce any assurance so determined, as absolutely to deny all distinction between them. Let a man's insensibility be ever so great, he must often be touched with the images of Right and Wrong; and let his prejudices be ever so obstinate, he must observe, that others are susceptible of like impressions. The only way, therefore, of converting an antagonist of this kind, is to leave him to himself. For, finding that nobody keeps up the controversy with him, it is probable he will, at last, of himself, from mere weariness, come over to the side of common sense and reason.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Differentiated book* It has a historical context with research of the time-An Inquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals, is a book by the Scottish philosopher David Hume. In it, Hume argues (among other things) that the foundations of morality are based on passions and not on reason. Research on the principles of morals is a post-Research on Human Understanding. Therefore, it is often referred to as "the second investigation." It was originally published in 1751, three years after the first investigation.Hume first discusses the treaty ethics of human nature. Later he extracted and presented the ideas he proposed there in his second investigation. In his brief autobiographical work, My own life (1776), Hume states that his second research is "of all my writings, historical, philosophical or literary, incomparably the best."Hume defends his moral emotivism based on sympathy by stating that, contrary to moral rationalism, we can never make moral judgments based on reason alone. Reason deals with the facts and draws conclusions from them, but, all things being equal, it could not lead us to choose one option over the other; Only our feelings can do this.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A genuine understanding of Hume's extraordinarily rich, important, and influential moral philosophy requires familiarity with all of his writings on vice and virtue, the passions, the will, and even judgments of beauty--and that means familiarity not only with large portions of A Treatise of Human Nature, but also with An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals and many of his essays as well. This volume is the one truly comprehensive collection of Hume's work on all of these topics. Geoffrey Sayre-McCord, a leading moral philosopher and Hume scholar, has done a meticulous job of editing the texts and has provided an extensive Introduction that is at once accessible, accurate, and philosophically engaging, revealing the deep structure of Hume's moral philosophy. --Don Garrett, New York University
