Book Synopsis
In ancient times, the main approaches to metaphysical realism were intuitive. In modern times, foundationalism has replaced intuition as the main strategy to make out metaphysical realist claims to know. In On Foundationalism, Rockmore argues that foundationalism fails in all its known variants.

Trade Review
Rockmore's pellucid style presents the complex history of a theory in a usefully understated manner. It is a style that cuts through the technical and historical details to expose the basic key positions, yet does so without oversimplifying them. * Review of Metaphysics *
