Review # 1 was written on 2009-01-25 00:00:00 Nicholas Young Another brisk, cursory look into the life and works of an esteemed philosophical mind. Strathern's 90-minute take on Hume is a respectful primer for the man who made atheism fashionable for intellectuals and also helped tear apart his contemporary's conceptions of philosophy, ushering in what we consider the modern era of ontological thought. These audiobooks have been fun and made for a nice refresher for the hardly operable understanding of philosophy I had left over from a couple of college courses I took in my younger and more vulnerable years, but I'll probably check out Bertrand Russell's A History of Western Philosophy the next time I feel like inching my way closer to maybe one day (but probably never) actually reading some philosophy.

Review # 2 was written on 2014-05-22 00:00:00 Shigeru Sashikata This, like the book on Descartes, contains more information on the life of the philosopher than on his ideas. It also contains quite a lot of Mr Strathern's facetious remarks, which I personally don't need!!
