This volume presents 38 classic texts in formal epistemology, and
strengthens the ties between research into this area of philosophy
and its neighbouring intellectual disciplines. The editors provide
introductions to five subsections: Bayesian Epistemology, Belief
Change, Decision Theory, Interactive Epistemology and Epistemic
Logic. 'Formal epistemology' is a term coined in the late 1990s for
a new constellation of interests in philosophy, the origins of
which are found in earlier works of epistemologists, philosophers
of science and logicians. It addresses a growing agenda of problems
concerning knowledge, belief, certainty, rationality, deliberation,
decision, strategy, action and agent interaction - and it does so
using methods from logic, probability, computability, decision and
game theory. The volume also includes a thorough index and
suggestions for further reading, and thus offers a complete
teaching and research package for students as well as research
scholars of formal epistemology, philosophy, logic, computer
science, theoretical economics and cognitive psychology.
