This book provides a detailed and comprehensive account of the
problem of a priori knowledge from a historical as well as a
systematic perspective. The author explores Kant's views in
connection with the possibility of revision, something hardly, if
at all, done in philosophical literature. Furthermore, the views of
well-renowned philosophers such as Quine, Putnam, Kitcher, and Hale
are discussed in detail and are put into a historical and
systematic perspective. Finally, this book contains a glossary of
important notions offering illuminating accounts of a priori
knowledge and related notions and explains the relationship between
a priori knowledge, fallibility and revision. The detailing of
concepts such as 'defeasibility', 'infallibility', 'falsifiability'
helps anyone reading philosophical literature to pin down the
meaning of the terms and its implications in this context. The
enriched and dual approach the author takes makes the book a very
useful and lucid guide to the problem of a priori knowledge.
