Epistemology and Emotions (eBook, ePUB)

• Format: ePub

Produktbeschreibung

This volume is the first collection focusing on the claim that we cannot but account for emotions if we are to understand the processes and evaluations related to empirical knowledge. All essays are specifically written for this collection by leading researchers in this relatively new and developing field, bringing together work from backgrounds such as pragmatism and skepticism, cognitive theories of emotions and cognitive science, Cartesian epistemology and virtue epistemology.
