Vincent F. Hendricks

Mainstream and Formal Epistemology

• Gebundenes Buch

Produktbeschreibung

Mainstream and Formal Epistemology provides the first easily accessible yet erudite and original analysis of the meeting point between mainstream and formal theories of knowledge. Vincent F. Hendricks demonstrates how mainstream and formal epistemology may significantly benefit from one another, paving the way for a new unifying program of plethoric epistemology. His book will both define and further the debate between philosophers from two very different sides of the epistemological spectrum.
