Materialism Is More Sceptical than Idealism in Hume’s System

In the last four chapters, I consider the way the two readings, Idealist and Materialist, impact scepticism. In this chapter, I argue that Materialism is more Sceptical than Idealism in Hume’s System. In the following chapters, I will focus on the impact the two readings have on scepticism within a more sensible (Idealist) one, which results from replacing induction with Inference to the Best Explanation.
