BIBLIOGRAPHY

I. Background and General

    The lists given by the Nortons on pp. I101-I105 in their edition of the Treatise should meet most of the needs of the students in this 
course.  A more selective list of the "Studies of Hume's Philosophy" than they give would contain, under "Introductory Studies", the 
works by Norton and Penelhum, and, under "Advanced Monographs", those by Baier, Bricke, Fogelin, Garrett, Mackie, Norton, 
Owen, Smith, and Stroud.  The book by Don Garrett, Cognition and Commitment in Hume's Philosophy, is particularly recommended.

    There is one additonal item that might prove useful as a supplement to the Nortons' "References" Section:

        Yolton, John W., et al. (eds.), Dictionary of Eighteenth-Century British Philosophers, 2 vols. (Bristol: Thoemmes Press, 1999).
