Více o knize

Focusing on the concept of epistemic defeat, this book explores how new information can undermine the justification of beliefs. It presents a comprehensive framework for understanding various types of defeaters and their impact on belief systems, emphasizing the incompatibilities they create. The discussion extends to the implications of disagreement, advocating for conciliationism and offering insights into higher-order defeat. Additionally, it challenges internalist perspectives and revisits the notion of normative defeat, contributing to a deeper understanding of justification and belief dynamics.
