Description
Ernest Sosa's Knowing Full Well presents a comprehensive account of his views on epistemic normativity, exploring how knowledge is related to action and the nature of competence.
The book develops a bi-level approach to performance normativity, examining issues such as epistemic agency, the relationship between knowledge and assertion, and the Meno problem. Sosa also considers comparisons with other philosophical perspectives, including classical internalist foundationalism and attributor contextualism.
Through its exploration of these topics, Knowing Full Well sheds light on the nature of epistemic competence and the conditions necessary for knowledge to be fully warranted.
