Reviews
[Pasnau's] command of the historical literature--primary and secondary--is extremely impressive, especially with regards to his specialty: the medieval period. The notes in particular offer a wealth of information and provide enough substance for me to heartily recommend this book. * Kevin Meeker, Mind *
A stimulating, readable synopsis of more than two millennia of epistemological thought . ... [I] wholeheartedly recommend it to anyone with an interest in the history of epistemology. * Sydney Penner, Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews *
