Pathways to Knowledge

"In Pathways to Knowledge, philosopher Alvin Goldman focuses on two traditional questions in epistemology, "How can we know?" and "How can we attain justified belief?" Approaching issues in epistemology as questions about legitimate methods or pathways to knowledge, he tackles a variety of issues that often reach across philosophy into the social and cognitive sciences." "Pathways to Knowledge offers Goldman's latest contributions to naturalistic and social epistemology. As with his previous work, these essays will prove to be valuable resources for students and practitioners of both philosophy and neighboring sciences."--Jacket.

First sentence: In recent decades, epistemology has witnessed the development and growth of externalist theories of knowledge and justification.
