This comprehensive introduction to the field of epistemology explains the concepts and theories central to understanding knowledge. Along with covering the traditional topics of the discipline in detail, \u003cem\u003eEpistemology\u003c\/em\u003e explores emerging areas of research. The third edition features new sections on such topics as the nature of intuition, the skeptical challenge of rational disagreement, and \"the value problem\" - the range of questions concerning why knowledge and justified true belief have value beyond that of merely true belief.
