Hardback. Wilfrid Sellars ranks as one of the leading critics of empiricism--a philosophical approach to knowledge that seeks to ground it in human sense experience.

Num Pages: 266 pages, illustrations. BIC Classification: HPCF5; HPK. Category: (G) General (US: Trade). Dimension: 243 x 159 x 25. Weight in Grams: 602.

Paperback. What don't we know, and why don't we know it? What keeps ignorance alive, or allows it to be used as a political instrument? This book provides a theoretical perspective to broaden traditional questions about "how we know" to ask: Why don't we know what we don't know? It shows that ignorance is often more than just an absence of knowledge. Editor(s): Proctor, Robert; Schiebinger, Londa. Num Pages: 312 pages, 1 table, 15 illustrations. BIC Classification: HPK.
