A Guide through the Theory of Knowledge, 3rd Edition

“Morton’s highly readable third edition treats a notoriously difficult topic with pizzazz. Colorful illustrations encourage readers to think deeply about complex issues, not just memorize what philosophers have said about them. One could hardly hope for a better guide through the rough terrain of epistemology.” Martin Montminy, University of Ottawa

“This new edition of Adam Morton’s well-established introduction to epistemology will be extremely helpful to students and teachers. The book is particularly suited for those coming to the area for the first time. It is clear without being simplistic, engaging without being patronizing, and introductory without being bland. This new edition brings the discussion up to date, while the new chapter on externalism and epistemic virtues explores the issues very well. Once again, Morton’s guidance will be invaluable to many.” Robert Stern, University of Sheffield
