As far as I gather from reading briefly on Hume, he suggested a new category of science ( or cognition, for that matter ) namely the 'Science of Man'. There would be comprised all the 'sciences' both what he calls the 'empirical 'moral' ones ( like politics, logics etc. ) and the 'natural' ones ( the ones whose laws are perfect and thus their results always verifiable ( what he calls the mathematics, for instance )
MY QUESTION THEREFORE IS: CAN ANYBODY EXPAND ON HUME'S ARGUMENT THAT ' THERE IS NO QUESTION OF IMPORTANCE WHOSE DECISION IS NOT COMPRISED IN THE SCIENCE OF MAN '
I WOULD REALLY APPRECIATE IF ANY OF YOU COULD HELP ME AT ALL. THANKS
