Recenzii
"Achieving Knowledge: A Virtue-Theoretic Account of Epistemic Normativity is an admirable piece of work, a well-argued and insightful book. It is a strength of the book that Greco has read widely on the topic and attempts to synthesize much of what has been written."
--George Lăzăroiu, PhD /IISHSS, New York, Review of Contemporary Philosophy
"...It is an honor to review this book.... the book is an excellent example of the pursuit of an important research project.... the way the book is laid out (as well as the updatings of the papers the other chapters are based on) make the book a great read..."
--Trent Dougherty, Baylor University, American Catholic Philosophical Quarterly
"...Achieving Knowledge is a very competent addition to the literature, clearly meriting the attention of the growing number of epistemologists concerned with questions of value, virtue and justification... Achieving Knowledge is fundamentally an attempt to integrate competing intuitions concerning epistemic normativity into a single unifying theory..."
