PHIL 386 - Skepticism and Knowledge


This course explores the nature and extent of our knowledge of the world, raising fundamental questions about justification and truth. The skeptical denial of knowledge is confronted; defenses of knowledge are essayed. The course surveys empirical studies of how our thinking often goes wrong and how we can guard against these widespread and largely unconscious errors.
