Philosophy: epistemology & theory of knowledge

Hardcover. Brian Hedden defends a radical view about rationality, personal identity, and time. He argues that what it is rational to do should not depend on your past beliefs or actions, which are not part of your current perspective on the world. His impersonal approach holds that what rationality demands of you is solely determined by your evidence. Num Pages: 224 pages. BIC Classification: HPJ; HPK; HPQ.
