Epistemology: Classic Problems and Contemporary Responses (Elements of Philosophy)Laurence BonJourI relish a capable and brainy reading adventure. I know it seems that much of this world is crazy for fluff. We have an entertainment industry that often provides trifling pieces of unimportant lightweight productions. There are some inane movie stars marketing insipid shows while intermixing irrational worldviews. Yes, that's just entertainment. And human beings ought to have mindless musings and delightful entertainment.
Nonetheless, what we need more are potent and thorough informed philosophical literature. In BonJour's Epistemology, here we have "a lucid defense of internalist, Cartesian foundationalism" (Ernest Sosa). Among Chapter Subjects are: - Descartes, - A Priori - the Problem of Induction - Other Minds - Quine - Foundationalism V Coherentism Very few works of Epistemology are intellectually accessible to the philosophically unseasoned. This book is an exception to that rule. This is a thinking man's simple introduction to epistemic issues, problems, and possible solutions. This is a fine read for students with or without an avowed epistemic stance. BonJour does not vigorously enforce his epistemic perspective on the uninformed, but he discusses and as he writes "suggests" thoughtful and satisfactory answers. My own epistemic province is sharply opposed to the author's, nevertheless I luxuriate in informed and earnest and pensive deliberations on truth and knowledge. I'd rather abstain from a sit-com than an outstanding epistemic treatise such as this one BonJour has rendered.
