Reviews

This is a very welcome anthology with some excellent contributions. It has a good focus (neither too much spread nor too much overlap of topics). Everyone working on pragmatic encroachment or related topics will certainly want to read it. -- Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews Recent work in epistemology has blurred the conceptual line between the epistemic or theoretical, and the practical: knowledge and evidence have become tightly connected in normative ways to one's practical interests and reasons for action. This volume is a welcome collection of new essays which explore this debate and take it in new directions. -- Matthew A. Benton, Seattle Pacific University
