This collection of essays explores the philosophy of human
knowledge from a multitude of perspectives, with a particular
emphasis upon the justification component of the classical analysis
of knowledge and with an excursion along the way to explore the
role of knowledge in Texas Hold 'Em poker. An important theme of
the collection is the role of knowledge in religion, including a
detailed argument for agnosticism. A number of the essays touch
upon issues in philosophical logic, among them a fascinating new
counter-example to Modus Ponens. The collection is rounded out with
essays on causality and the philosophy of mind. The author's
perspective on the philosophy of human knowledge is fresh and
challenging, as evidenced by essays entitled "On Epistemic
Preferability;" "On Being Unjustified;" "The Logic of 'Unless'" and
"Is 'This sentence is true.' True?" An interesting feature of The
Logic of Philosophy: Pesky Essays is the inclusion of responses to
several of its key essays, contributed by such prominent
contemporary philosophers as Roderick Chisholm, Ted Sider and Tomas
Kapitan.
