Reviews

Review from previous edition filled with interesting and original arguments about the nature and possibility of knowledge ... working through the puzzles having to do with the relations between knowledge, justification, and reasons for belief and action has been a great deal of fun. I cannot recall enjoying a book as much as I've enjoyed Knowledge in an Uncertain World. Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
