- A collection of new essays by some of the leading epistemologists in the field
- Covers a very wide range of topics
This volume offers a view of the current state of play in epistemology, in the form of twelve new essays by some of the philosophers who have most influenced the course of debates in recent years. Topics include epistemic justification, solipsism, skepticism, and modal, moral, naturalistic, and probabilistic epistemology. Such approaches as reliabilism, evidentialism, infinitism, and virtue epistemology are here developed further by the philosophers who pioneered them.Readership: Advanced students and scholars of philosophy, particularly epistemology.

"The range of topics is wide yet coherent, and each author is at the top of his or her game. I highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in contemporary epistemology." - Kelly Becker Mind 119 "This is a stellar collection of epistemologists writing at the center of their specialties. It is not just reviewer boilerplate to say that this volume is ideal for an epistemology course for advanced majors or a graduate seminar in contemporary epistemology. Almost everyone who works in epistemology will want to read at least some of these essays." - Trent Dougherty, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
