by Sven Bernecker

Published 21 December 2005
Designed for readers who have had little or no exposure to contemporary theory of knowledge, "Reading Epistemology" brings together twelve important and influential writings on the subject. This work presents twelve influential pieces of writing representing two contrasting views on each of six core topics in epistemology. Each chapter contains an introduction to the topic, introductions to the authors, extensive commentaries on the texts, questions for debate and an annotated bibliography. It includes writings from Robert Nozick, Ernest Sosa, Laurence BonJour, and Fred Dretske. This work encourages readers to engage with the texts and to think for themselves.
