This book explores how far some leading philosophers from Montaigne to Hume used Academic Scepticism to build their own brand of scepticism or took it as its main sceptical target. The book offers a detailed view of the main modern key figures including Sanches Charron La Mothe Le Vayer Bacon Gassendi Descartes Malebranche Pascal Foucher Huet and Bayle. In addition it provides a comprehensive assessment of the role of Academic Scepticism in Early Modern philosophy and a complete survey of the period. As a whole the book offers a basis for a new balanced assessment of the role played by scepticism in both its forms. Since Richard Popkin's works there has been considerable interest in the role played by Pyrrhonian Scepticism in Early Modern Philosophy. Comparatively Academic Scepticism was much neglected by scholars despite some scattered important contributions. Furthermore a general assessment of the presence of Academic Scepticism in Early Modern Philosophy is lacking. This book fills the void.
