| Abstract
|
:
|
"This book is about the nature of skeptical arguments and their role in philosophical inquiry. John Greco defends three theses: that a number of historically prominent skeptical arguments make no obvious mistake and therefore cannot be easily dismissed, that the analysis of skeptical arguments is philosophically useful and important and should therefore have a central place in the methodology of philosophy, and that taking skeptical arguments seriously requires us to adopt an externalist, reliabilist epistemology." "This book will be of interest to professionals and graduate students in epistemology and moral philosophy."--Jacket.
