Description
An Analysis of Edmund Gettier's Is Justified True Belief Knowledge? by Jason Schukraft
This book explores one of the most influential philosophical challenges to the traditional definition of knowledge, which dates back to ancient Greece. The author examines the work of Edmund Gettier and his two clear examples that challenged this theory.
Gettier's achievement is rooted in his mastery of critical thinking skills, particularly analysis, which allowed him to identify the relationships between arguments and assumptions. This book provides a concise overview of Gettier's contributions to epistemology and their significance for our understanding of knowledge.
