Reviews
[a] very fine book ... There is a great deal to be said about Cohon's interpretation. I predict that her book will be a staple of discussion of Hume's ethics for years to come ... Hume's Morality presents a powerful case for a new and important reading of Hume on the artificial virtues, and challenging its conclusions will be very hard work., 'Review from previous edition Rachel Cohon provides an excellent, detailed, scholarly and thorough analysis of Hume's moral theory... Her book is a "must read" for anyone working in Hume's ethics and moral theory generally.'Christine Swanton, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, Review from previous edition: "Rachel Cohon provides an excellent, detailed, scholarly and thorough analysis of Hume's moral theory... Her book is a 'must read' for anyone working in Hume's ethics and moral theory generally." --Christine Swanton, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, "This thoughtful and highly readable collection of conversations with philosophers on a broad range of topics, from the perennial problems of skepticism to the epistemological questions raised by wine tasting, displays an admirable grasp of a variety of issues."--Publishers Weekly, One has to admire the spirit, the inventiveness, the concern for the text, and the engagement with other views that Cohon displays.

Synopsis
Rachel Cohon offers an original interpretation of the moral philosophy of David Hume, focusing on two areas. Firstly, his metaethics. Cohon reinterprets Hume's claim that moral distinctions are not derived from reason and explains why he makes it. She finds that Hume did not actually hold three "Humean" claims: 1) that beliefs alone cannot move us to act, 2) that evaluative propositions cannot be validly inferred from purely factual propositions, or 3) that moral judgments lack truth value. According to Hume, human beings discern moral virtues and vices by means of feeling or emotion in a way rather like sensing; but this also gives the moral judge a truth-apt idea of a virtue or vice as a felt property. Secondly, Cohon examines the artificial virtues. Hume says that although many virtues are refinements of natural human tendencies, others (such as honesty) are constructed by social convention to make cooperation possible; and some of these generate paradoxes. She argues that Hume sees these traits as prosthetic virtues that compensate for deficiencies in human nature. However, their true status clashes with our common-sense conception of a virtue, and so has been concealed, giving rise to the paradoxes., Rachel Cohon offers an original interpretation of the ethical thinking of the eighteenth-century philosopher David Hume. She focuses on two claims: that human beings figure out what is good or evil by using our feelings or emotions, and that some of the good traits we recognize are produced by informal social agreement and teaching.
