How to Know: A Practicalist Conception of KnowledgeHardcover, 17 May 2011

Some key aspects of contemporary epistemology deserve to be challenged, and How to Know does just that. This book argues that several long-standing presumptions at the heart of the standard analytic conception of knowledge are false, and defends an alternative, a practicalist conception of knowledge.

• Presents a philosophically original conception of knowledge, at odds with some central tenets of analytic epistemology
• Offers a dissolution of epistemology's infamous Gettier problem -- explaining why the supposed problem was never really a problem in the first place.
• Defends an unorthodox conception of the relationship between knowledge-that and knowledge-how, understanding knowledge-that as a kind of knowledge-how.
