 Later philosophers would select, highlight, and nickname Humean principles—Hume's fork, the problem of induction, and Hume's law—although Hume respected and accepted the empirical sciences as inevitably inductive, after all.Immanuel Kant, in Germany, alarmed by Hume's seemingly radical empiricism, identified its apparent opposite, rationalism, in Descartes, and sought a middleground.Kant intuited that "necessity" exists, indeed, bridging the world in itself to human experience, and that it is the mind, having innate constants that determine "space", "time", and "substance", and thus ensure the empirically correct physical theory's universal truth.
