Abstract
David Hume, the third major empiricist starts from the premise that all knowledge of the world must come from experience. He underscores this point by emphasizing how much more vivid sense impressions are than the copies we make of them by merely thinking. Hume attacks the belief that reason has remarkable powers, the core of rationalism. He is a great admirer of Newton as well as Locke, and attempts to explain the science of human behavior, why we think and believe the way we do.
