Reviews

Putting Logic in its place is a well-written book, made accessible by its brevity and lack of technicality. It will admirably serve both the seasoned hand and the newcomer looking for a survey of the territory. Michael G. Titelbaum Christensen's book recommends itself by being a substantial contribution to the field, full of insights, and extraordinarily well-written... If you are looking for an excellent monograph on epistemic rationality that takes both sides of the 'divide' between formal and traditional epistemology seriously, here it is. Erkenntnis, 67:143-146
