An Essay Upon The Relation Of Cause And Effect, Controverting The Doctrine Of Mr. Hume: Concerning The Nature Of That Relation is a book written by Mary Shepherd in 1824. The book is a critique of the philosophy of David Hume and his ideas concerning the nature of cause and effect. Hume argued that there is no necessary connection between cause and effect, and that our belief in such a connection is based on habit and custom rather than reason. Shepherd, on the other hand, argued that there is a necessary connection between cause and effect, and that this connection can be understood through reason and reflection. In the book, Shepherd examines Hume's arguments and presents her own ideas on the nature of cause and effect, drawing on the works of other philosophers such as John Locke and George Berkeley. The book is a significant contribution to the debate on causation in philosophy and has been praised for its clarity and rigor.With Observations Upon The Opinions Of Dr. Brown And Mr. Lawrence, Connected With The Same Subject.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
