Description

This introduction to epistemology explores the fundamental questions of knowledge, its origins and nature. With 22 chapters covering traditional issues and contemporary ideas, it provides a clear and non-partisan view of the main themes in the theory of knowledge.

Each chapter includes a summary of key concepts, study questions, annotated further reading and internet resources, as well as bite-sized summaries of major philosophers and interesting examples. The book concludes with an annotated guide to general introductions to epistemology, a glossary of key terms and a summary of the main examples used.

Revised throughout for its fifth edition, this updated textbook features a new part on social epistemology and is ideal for undergraduates coming to philosophy for the first time. It offers a comprehensive and accessible overview of the subject, keeping it up-to-date with current developments in the field.
