10	Hume more books like this by Barry Stroud add to wishlist Many recent books on Hume have concentrated only on particular issues in his philosophy and have presented at best a fragmentary picture.

On the positive side, he shows how progress can be made on the issues, so ... see all copies from £19.48! new only from £19.48!
