Abstract

Until the late twentieth century social epistemology was a neglected subject. Alvin Goldman was one of the first epistemologists to recognize its importance, and, in a series of essays, he provided a conception of how social epistemology should be pursued and applied that conception to particular cases. Knowledge in a Social World develops the conception more systematically, and considers a broad range of social practices. The scope of Goldman’s discussion and the characteristic clarity with which he approaches the issues make this book the first classic in the field.
