Recenzii
a superb, well-rounded view of some of the latest thinking on the nature and value of knowledge.
The culmination of a long collaboration, this tryptich combines the latest by three outstanding contributers. The outcome is three illuminating panels on knowledge, its nature and value, and in one case specifically on self-knowledge. Anyone with an interest in these topics will want to read this book, and others who read it are likely to soon acquire an interest.
Pritchard's discussion of the nature and value of knowledge is first- rate. His framing of the various problems around the value of knowledge significantly advances current discussion of the relevant issues, to the point that, in my opinion, it is far and away the best available. Millar's discussion of the epistemology of testimony draws from his earlier work on understanding language and action, and is also neatly integrated into his accounts of perceptual knowledge and indicator knowledge in earlier chapters. This discussion is also very interesting. His arguments against reductionism, and his own anti-reductionist approach, are original and compelling. Haddock's contribution is a very interesting discussion that merits attention.
The Nature and Value of Knowledge is an excellent book for those interested in either topic mentioned in the title. As one would expect, the issues of the nature and value of knowledge are deeply intertwined, and all three investigations undertaken in the book respect this fact. Indeed, each author has much original to say about both. What makes this book truly unique is that it is focused on two closely related topics, yet at the same time it encompasses a multiplicity of perspectives, in terms of philosophical method, substance and style. Anyone interested specifically in the issue of the value of knowledge would do well to read it. It's an added bonus that there are worthy contributions to the much larger literature on the nature of knowledge as well.
This volume ... is a feast of contemporary epistemology approached through the question of how to account for the value of knowledge. Each contribution is highly readable, each quickly carries readers towards the cutting edge of discussions in recent epistemological literature, and each adds important, original arguments to those discussions.
Pritchard, Millar and Haddock, in their distinct and distinctive contributions to this book, examine the nature of knowledge in general and of certain species of knowledge, as well as the value of knowledge and of other epistemic standings. This is a superb and stimulating work, where each contribution stakes out and defends an original position in the field of epistemology. There is much here that merits serious attention.
