An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding is a revision of an earlier Hume’s work, Treatise of Human Nature, published anonymously in London in 1739–40. Hume was disappointed with the reception of the Treatise, which ‚fell dead-born from the press, ‚ as he put it, and so tried again to disseminate his more developed ideas to the public by writing a shorter and more polemical work.

Hume’s empiricist approach to philosophy places him with John Locke, Francis Bacon and Thomas Hobbes as a British Empiricist.
