Hume's Scepticism: Pyrrhonian and Academic (Edinburgh Studies in Scottish Philosophy)

Argues that David Hume was a thoroughgoing sceptic on epistemological, metaphysical and doxastic grounds

Making a sharp break with dominant contemporary readings of David Hume's scepticism, Peter S. Fosl offers an original and radical interpretation of Hume as a thoroughgoing sceptic. He does this by first situating Hume's thought historically in the sceptical tradition and goes on to interpret the conceptual apparatus of Hume's work.
