Description

Explore advanced philosophical arguments in Formal Epistemology and Cartesian Skepticism: In Defense of Belief in the Natural World. This Routledge publication provides new techniques in formal epistemology to address the classic challenges posed by Cartesian skepticism. Through the introduction of two specific formats of epistemic evaluation, this work offers deep insights for epistemologists and philosophers of science. The book examines the dual-component format, which assesses statements based on safety and informativeness, and the relative-divergence format, which evaluates probabilistic models through complexity and goodness of fit with data. By analyzing these frameworks, Tomoji Shogenji demonstrates how the dual-component format can lend support to Cartesian skepticism, while the relative-divergence format provides a method to defeat it. This text is an essential resource for those studying the intersection of formal logic, probability, and the philosophy of science.
