Description
Book SynopsisThis treatment of the internalism-externalism debate in contemporary epistemology explores the implications for traditional sceptical concerns. It argues that when one understands these implications, it is possible to see the philosophical usefulness of a foundationalism relying on acquaintance.
Trade ReviewI know of no other discussion of skepticism and its relation to the externalist/internalist debate that is as powerful and subtle as Fumerton's. -- Richard Foley
Metaepistemology and Skepticism offers both a powerful defense of skepticism and a highly sophisticated and detailed tour through contemporary epistemology. Anyone interested in these matters will profit from a careful study of this fine book. -- Jonathan Dancy, University of Reading
. . . a very insightful and dialectically sophisticated piece of work that sheds a great deal of light on recent epistemological controversies and their relation to skepticism. I have learned a great deal from reading this book and expect to return to it often. -- Laurence Bonjour, University of Washington
