Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals

David Hume

Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals, written by David Hume in 1751, examines the foundation of moral judgments. Hume debates whether morals arise from reason or sentiment, and whether they are universally applicable or shaped by human nature. This work serves as a popular summary of Book III from his earlier work, A Treatise of Human Nature, and is notable for its exploration of the relationship between morality and human emotions.
