Scepticism was a central topic in the culture of ancient Greece,
the source of Western civilisation. Over some three thousand years
scepticism remains an important tool with which to hone new ideas.
With the advent of science and the opportunity for independent
verification of concepts, scepticism has assumed a more central
role in contemporary culture, requiring constant modification and
updating. This volume has attempted to discuss scepticism in the
context of both science and the humanities with 33 chapters
covering a wide range of subjects without any attempt at being
comprehensive. The authors come from different disciplines, though
all have focused on the role of scepticism in their subjects. The
editors have contributed short introductory and linking texts in an
attempt to provide a smooth continuity between some chapters that
are aimed at aiding the reader's transition between sections.
