Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book provides an examination of Hume's influence on Kant's philosophy, arguing that Hume inspired Kant's Critique of Pure Reason not by challenging empirical knowledge, but by attacking metaphysics and the proofs of the existence of God. It posits that both Kant and Hume were primarily interested not in skepticism about science or ordinary experience, but in a question of much greater existential and political importance: whether the belief in God can be based on proof.
