Knowledge puzzles: an introduction to epistemology (1st edition.)

Despite the problems students often have with the theory of knowledge, it remains, necessarily, at the core of the philosophical enterprise.

As experienced teachers know, teaching epistemology requires a text that is not only clear and accessible, but also capable of successfully motivating the abstract problems that arise.

In 'Knowledge Puzzles', Stephen Hetherington presents an informal survey of epistemology based on the use of puzzles to illuminate problems of knowledge.

Each topic is introduced through a puzzle, and readers are invited to work their own ways toward a solution.
