In Part 3 of David Hume's exploration of knowledge, Chapter 11 delves into how philosophers of the Enlightenment, including Hume himself, critically engaged with Isaac Newton's scientific methods. Rejecting the Cartesian reliance on pure reason, Hume emphasizes the importance of empirical observation and inductive reasoning in understanding the natural world. This chapter invites readers to consider the implications of Newtonian physics on philosophical discourse and the evolving nature of knowledge during the Enlightenment.
