书名: Norms, Naturalism and Epistemology: The Case for Science without Norms
作者: Jonathan Knowles (Author)
出版社: Palgrave Macmillan (January 17, 2004)
语言: English

ISBN-13: 978-1403902870
Book Description
Jonathan Knowles argues against theories that seek to provide specific norms for the formation of belief on the basis of empirical sources: the project of naturalized epistemology. He argues that such norms are either not genuinely normative for belief, or are not required for optimal belief formation. An exhaustive classification of such theories is motivated and each variety is discussed in turn. He distinguishes naturalized epistemology from the less committal idea of naturalism, which provides a sense in which we can achieve epistemic normativity without norms.
