A letter from a gentleman to his friend in Edinburgh (1745)
Edinburgh,: Edinburgh University Press (1745)
Abstract
"A facsimile reprint of a letter written by the philosopher and historian David Hume in 1744 in defence of his views on ethics, in which he argues that a critique of the logic of a philosophical stance is not a general attack on the ethics of that position." --Links
