A Treatise of Human Nature
David Hume · John Noon, London (vols. I-II); Thomas Longman, London (vol. III) · 1739
No book-club or reprint-society issue exists for the 1739-40 sheets. Later eighteenth- and nineteenth-century printings, and all modern scholarly editions (Selby-Bigge, Selby-Bigge/Nidditch, the Clarendon Hume), are separate editions rather than states of the first; the quickest tell is authorship on the title page, since the first edition is anonymous.
