"An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding"
"An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding" is a philosophical work by David Hume that examines how we come to know and understand the world. Hume explores how our minds process information, emphasizing that much of our knowledge comes from experience and habits, rather than logical certainty. He discusses concepts like cause and effect, questioning whether we can truly know why things happen, or if we just expect certain outcomes based on past observations. The work encourages skepticism about human reasoning and highlights the limits of our understanding, promoting a careful, scientific approach to knowledge and belief.
