Patrick Greenough is a senior Lecturer in the Department of
Philosophy at the University of St. Andrews. His works in the
Philosophy of Logic, the Philosophy of Language, and
Epistemology.
Duncan Pritchard gained his PhD from the University of St. Andrews.
His research is mainly in epistemology and he has published widely
in this area, including Epistemic Luck (OUP, 2005) and What is this
Thing Called Knowledge? (Routledge, 2006). Previously, he was
Professor of Philosophy at the University of Stirling; he presently
occupies the Chair in Epistemology at the University of Edinburgh.
the volume is an especially valuable epistemological resource: it
ushers us toward a deeper understanding of Williamson's
epistemology. Here in a single volume are interesting new
criticisms of Williamson's views, leveled by some epistemological
heavyweights, and novel defenses of those views, defenses in which
Williamson often supplements and further develops his earlier
contributions. His pioneering work occupies an important place in
epistemology, and this volume is a rich and welcome aid to those of
us who have an interest in understanding and appreciating
Williamson's work.
*Tim Black, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews*
The volume appears suitable for an audience of (mainly
postgraduate) students and scholars of philosophy who are already
familiar with Williamson's knowledge-first epistemology but look
for clarifications, further explanations, or aim at a critical
assessment of it in the light of more recent philosophical
reflection. The book turns out to be a very valuable tool with
respect to these aims. ... intreguing and valuable.
