Presents an interpretation of David Hume's account of what a 'cause' is. This book emphasises on the connections between Hume's theories of cause, space and time, morals, and aesthetics. It presents an argument that Hume's causal theory is best understood as 'quasi-realist', an intermediate position between realism and anti-realism.
