Rezensionen

"(Gerken)...displays obvious mastery of both the philosophy of mind and epistemology, and his treatment is extremely thorough... ...he convincingly makes a case for the importance of the methodology or pursuing questions in the philosophy of mind and epistemology in tandem. Anyone interested in these areas of philosophy, and their intersection, would do well to read this book."
