Description
A Critical Introduction to Knowledge-How by J. Adam Carter and Ted Poston provides an in-depth exploration of the nature of knowledge-how, a topic that has sparked intense debate in contemporary philosophy. By situating this debate within broader epistemological discussions, the authors offer new perspectives on what knowledge-how involves and how it relates to propositional knowledge. The book examines key topics such as epistemic luck, language, epistemic value, virtue epistemology, social epistemology, internalism-externalism debates, embodied, and extended knowledge. This accessible introduction is geared towards undergraduates and postgraduates in philosophy and related fields, making it an ideal resource for those looking to engage with the latest research on this subject. With its methodologically rigorous approach and opinionated discussion of various lines of argument, A Critical Introduction to Knowledge-How offers a valuable contribution to the field.
