Book excerpt: Annette Baier goes beyond her earlier work on David Hume to reflect on a topic that links his philosophy to questions of immediate relevance—in particular, questions about what character is and how it shapes our lives. Her reading radically revises the received interpretation of Hume's epistemology and, in particular, philosophy of mind.
