Achieving Knowledge
ISBN: 9780521193917 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. When we affirm (or deny) that someone knows something, we are making a value judgment of sorts - we are claiming that there is something superior (or inferior) about that person's opinion, or their evidence, or perhaps about them. A central task of the theory of knowledge is to investigate the sort of evaluation at issue. This is the first book to make 'epistemic normativity, ' or the normative dimension of knowledge and knowledge ascriptions, its central focus. John Greco argues that knowledge is a kind of achievement, as opposed to mere lucky success. This locates knowledge within a...

Putting Skeptics in Their Place: The Nature of Skeptical Arguments and Their Role in Philosophical Inquiry
ISBN: 9780521045537 / Angielski / Miękka / 2007 / 284 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. This book is about the nature of skeptical arguments and their role in philosophical inquiry. John Greco delineates three main theses: that a number of historically prominent skeptical arguments make no obvious mistake, and therefore cannot be easily dismissed; that the analysis of skeptical arguments is philosophically useful and important, and should therefore have a central place in the methodology of philosophy; and that taking skeptical arguments seriously requires us to adopt an externalist, reliabilist epistemology. This book will be of interest to professionals and graduate students...

The Transmission of Knowledge
ISBN: 9781108472623 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 260 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. How do we transmit or distribute knowledge, as distinct from generating or producing it? In this book John Greco examines the interpersonal relations and social structures which enable and inhibit the sharing of knowledge within and across epistemic communities. Drawing on resources from moral theory, the philosophy of language, action theory and the cognitive sciences, he considers the role of interpersonal trust in transmitting knowledge, and argues that sharing knowledge involves a kind of shared agency similar to giving a gift or passing a ball. He also explains why transmitting knowledge...

ISBN: 9781108481212 / Angielski / Twarda / 2020 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych.

This volume brings...
