Believable Evidence argues that evidence consists of true beliefs.
This claim opens up an entirely overlooked space on the ontology of
evidence map, between purely factualist positions (such as those of
Williamson and Dancy) and purely psychologist ones (such as that of
Conee and Feldman). Veli Mitova provides a compelling three-level
defence of this view in the first contemporary monograph entirely
devoted to the ontology of evidence. First, once we see the
evidence as a good reason, metaethical considerations show that the
evidence must be psychological and veridical. Second, true belief
in particular allows epistemologists to have everything they want
from the concept of evidence. Finally, the view helps us locate the
source of the normative authority of evidence. The book challenges
a broad range of current views on the ontology of reasons and their
normative authority, making it a must-read for scholars and
advanced students in metaethics and epistemology.
