Rezensionen

"Written in an engaging and accessible style Roeber's Political Humility is an excellent example of the valuable contribution that empirically informed epistemology can make to public debate. Roeber convincingly argues that awareness of our unavoidable ignorance of a large proportion of politically relevant facts should not lead us to apathy but to more humble yet more effective political engagement."
