How do we know what we know? What have wisdom, prudence and
studiousness to do with justifying our beliefs? Jay Wood begins
this introduction to epistemology by taking an extended look at the
idea of knowing within the context of the intellectual virtues. He
then surveys current views of foundationalism, epistemic
justification and reliabilism. Finally he examines the relationship
of epistemology to religious belief, and the role of emotions and
virtues in proper cognitive functioning Professors will find this
text, with its many examples drawn from everyday student
experience, especially useful in introducing students to the formal
study of epistemology.
