The most important questions in life are questions about what we should do and what we should believe. The first of these questions has received considerable attention by normative ethicists, who search for a complete systematic account of right action. This book is about the second question: what should we believe? Right Belief and True Belief starts by defining a new field of inquiry author Daniel J. Singer calls 'normative epistemology', that mirrors normative ethics by searching for a systematic account of right belief--belief that is closest to the truth.

Autorenporträt
Daniel J. Singer is an Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Pennsylvania, where he also holds a secondary appointment as an Associate Professor of Legal Studies and Business Ethics in the Wharton School of Business. Singer employs both traditional philosophical methodology and innovative formal research techniques using agent-based computer models. As the author of over two dozen articles and book chapters, most of his work is about understanding what beliefs we should have, including questions in epistemology, the nature of normativity in ethics and epistemology, and social philosophy (focusing specifically on the epistemic impacts of diversity and polarization).
