Reviews

This book is a remarkable project and contains a body of excellent critique and argument, constituting a concise and accurate analysis of the topic. The book draws on the epistemological tradition of modernity, but introduces a novel argument making it a strong competitor among any book dealing with the epistemology of the twentieth and the twenty-first centuries. The book makes a significant contribution to the literature because it draws a comparison between dominant epistemological trends. -- Anastasia Marinopoulou, Hellenic Open University
