| This is an extremely stimulating and interesting rereading of Hume's works. Departing from the standard reading of Hume as a proto-logical positivist, Livingston draws out the points of connection between Hume and the ancient conception of philosophy as a way of life, as well as other thinkers, such as Vico, Gadamer, Oakeshott, and Wittgenstein, who were skeptical of the Enlightenment's tendencies toward abstract "rationalism." In the process, Livingston shows how Hume would have responded to some of the postmodern age's more egregious folly. Admittedly, this book could have used some pruning, for Livingston makes many of the same points over and over again. Moreover, Livingston uses Humean claims to defend the South's secession during the Civil War, a questionable use of Hume to say the least. But the work as a whole repays rereading and contemplation, and it'll definitely encourage you to read "le bon David" with a fresh eye. |

| This book was required reading for a class and very hard to get through. I read a lot of dry materials but this was more like a "teaching story." That being said, other people in the class loved it but did not like when the "science part" was explained and just wanted the story. Helpful for people who have little exp. with working with families but just another case study for everyone else. |

| This book was written several years ago (I think 1991), and the speech pathology field has changed/improved a LOT since then! The questions and answers were wrong in many cases. This book should not be in circulation! It won't help you with your Praxis studying. |
