Scott Yenor argues that David Hume's reputation as a skeptic is greatly exaggerated and that Hume's skepticism is a moment leading Hume to defend common life philosophy and the humane commercial republic. Gentle, humane virtues reflect the proper reaction to the complex mixture of human faculties that define the human condition.

Rezensionen
"David Hume's Humanity: The Philosophy of Common Life and Its Limits ... not only presents a synoptic vision of Hume's thought, but also argues that an amended version of it remains vital and relevant today - especially to political philosophy." (Nathan Sasser,Journal of Scottish Philosophy, Vol. 17 (1), 2019)
