Recenzii

“This volume captures the state of the art in epistemology.  Its articles range from classic problems like skepticism and the analysis of knowledge to more recent issues such as the value of knowledge, the significance of disagreement, and the relevance of knowledge attributions.  The volume is broad enough to include every conceivable approach to epistemology–from the armchair to experimental philosophy–and every way in which knowledge can be acquired.  Lucidly organized and with contributions from many first-rate philosophers, it should be at the center of debate for years to come.”–Baron Reed, Northwestern University
“This is a state-of-the-art collection by some of the leading epistemologists in the world today. The quality of the essays is exceptionally high and it is hard to think of a better volume of this kind on the market at present. Indispensable.”–Quassim Cassam, University of Warwick
The Routledge Companion to Epistemology has the virtues of a classic reference work.  It is a comprehensive presentation of the state of contemporary philosophy about knowledge and related matters.  Many of the entries are written by the most influential philosophers on their topics.  Non-epistemologists can use the work to find out what has been going on in almost any area of epistemology.  Epistemologists can benefit from authoritative descriptions of work in areas beyond their expertise.”–Earl Conee, University of Rochester
"With almost 80 entries by leading experts, no practicing or aspiring epistemologist should be without a copy by his or her side. No library should go without, and everyone working in contemporary philosophy would benefit from having this reference ready to hand. Bernecker and Pritchard have stitched together a truly outstanding collection of concise and informative essays covering the whole of contemporary epistemology."–Peter Graham, University of California, Riverside
