Description

Explore the boundaries of belief with Epistemic Risk and the Demands of Rationality from Oxford University Press. This work examines how much rationality actually constrains what we should believe based on available evidence. Taking inspiration from William James' ideas in 'The Will to Believe', the book argues that for most people and most bodies of evidence, there is a wide range of beliefs that rationality permits. The text introduces epistemic utility theory, a theory regarding the basis of epistemic rationality. It proposes that what is epistemically rational to believe is determined by what would be rational for you to believe under specific conditions. This philosophical investigation provides a deep look into the relationship between evidence and the limits of rational thought.
