Invaluable wisdom on living a good life from one of the Enlightenment s greatest philosophers

David Hume (1711-1776) is perhaps best known for his ideas about cause and effect and his criticisms of religion, but he is rarely thought of as a philosopher with practical wisdom to offer. The Great Guide is an engaging and eye-opening account of how Hume s thought should serve as the basis for a complete approach to life. Julian Baggini follows Hume on his life s journey, taking readers to the places that inspired Hume the most. He shows how Hume put his philosophy into practice in a life that blended reason and passion, study and leisure, and relaxation and enjoyment. Masterfully interweaving biography with intellectual history and philosophy, this book shows how life is far richer with Hume as your guide.

Julian Baggini is an independent scholar, philosopher, and writer. He was the founding editor of The Philosophers Magazine and is the author of many books, including How the World Thinks and The Edge of Reason.
