From Plato, through Descartes to W.V. Quine and Edmund Gettier,
this concise introduction and reference guide explores the history
of thinking about 'knowledge'. Exploring what great philosophers
have written about the nature of knowledge and about how we know
what we know, this is a concise and accessible introduction to the
field of epistemology. "Epistemology: The Key Thinkers" tells the
story of how epistemological thinking has developed over the
centuries, through the work of the finest thinkers on the topic.
Chapters by leading contemporary scholars guide readers through the
ideas of key philosophers, beginning with Plato and Aristotle,
through Descartes and the British empiricists, to such
twentieth-century thinkers such as Wittgenstein, Quine, Goldman,
and beyond. The final chapter looks to the future, highlighting
some of the very latest debates that energise philosophical writing
today about knowledge. Each chapter ends with a guide to further
reading, encouraging students to explore the key writings for
themselves, making "Epistemology: The Key Thinkers" a perfect guide
for study, revision, and reference. "The Key Thinkers" series is
aimed at undergraduate students and offers clear, concise and
accessible edited guides to the key thinkers in each of the central
topics in philosophy. Each book offers a comprehensive overview of
the major thinkers who have contributed to the historical
development of a key area of philosophy, providing a survey of
their major works and the evolution of the central ideas in that
area.
