His arguments in support of reasoning from experience, and against the \"sophistry and illusion\"of religiously inspired philosophical fantasies, caused controversy in the eighteenth century and are strikingly relevant today, when faith and science continue to clash.\u003cbr\u003e The \u003cem\u003eEnquiry\u003c\/em\u003e considers the origin and processes of human thought, reaching the stark conclusion that we can have no ultimate understanding of the physical world, or indeed our own minds. In either sphere we must depend on instinctive learning from experience, recognizing our animal nature and the limits of reason. Hume's calm and open-minded skepticism thus aims to provide a new basis for science, liberating us from the \"superstition\" of false metaphysics and religion. His \u003cem\u003eEnquiry\u003c\/em\u003e remains one of the best introductions to the study of philosophy, and his edition places it in its historical and philosophical context. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Series: \u003c\/strong\u003eFor over 100 years \u003cstrong\u003eOxford World's Classics \u003c\/strong\u003ehas made available the broadest spectrum of literature from around the globe.
