After Certainty: A History of Our Epistemic Ideals and Illusions
Oxford University Press (2017)
Abstract
After Certainty offers a reconstruction of the history of epistemology, understood as a series of changing expectations about the cognitive ideal that we might hope to achieve in this world. Pasnau ranges widely over philosophy from Aristotle to the 17th century, and examines in some detail the rise of science as an autonomous discipline.Author's Profile
