Kenneth R. Merrill is professor of philosophy emeritus and former department chair at the University of Oklahoma.
It is a useful and important book on many levels....Merrill's Historical Dictionary of Hume's Philosophy deserves a place in all research libraries as well as the personal libraries of anyone who takes Hume's work seriously.
— Dan Flage, Professor of Philosophy, James Madison University
Merrill's dictionary is a model of rigorous investigative scholarship, and is likely to remain the standard work for years to come on the topic of David Hume.
— American Reference Books Annual, August 2008
Merrill offers an excellent resource for anyone interested in David Hume, and modern era British philosophy more generally....Intended for nonspecialists, this dictionary is accessible to a wide audience. Its breadth and depth, however, make it appropriate for professionals as well. Highly recommended. Three-star review.
— CHOICE, March 2009
Appropriate to students in higher education and for the libraries serving them. Intended not just for beginners but as a handy point of reference for more experienced readers, as well as for collection managers.
