摘要
休谟对作为经验自然科学基础的因果律提出了最强有力的诘难,这一诘难深刻地影响了西方知识论和当代科学哲学。"休谟问题"表明:纵然是人类认识这种高度理性化的行为,如果没有非理性因素的参与,也是根本无法解释的;怀疑与批判是科学发展的不竭动力。
David Hume strongly challenges causality as a base for Empirical Natural Science, which deeply influences Western Knowledge Theory as well as Contemporary Science Philosophy.'Hume Problem'shows that without irrational factors, it would be impossible to explain even a highly rational behavior such as human cognition; suspicion and critique are the inexhaustible motive force of development of science.
