Description

Testimony examines how we justify trust in what others tell us, challenging the widespread assumption that true knowledge must be autonomous and independent. C.A.J. Coady argues that testimony is a legitimate source of knowledge despite centuries of philosophical scepticism, and demonstrates why our dependence on others' testimony is fundamental to everything we claim to know. Drawing on rigorous philosophical analysis, this study applies insights from testimony theory to specific domains including history, law, mathematics, and psychology, revealing how testimony functions as a cornerstone of knowledge across these fields. Oxford University Press presents a groundbreaking reassessment of epistemology that repositions testimony from a suspect source to an essential component of human understanding.

Key Features

Testimony is analysed as a justified source of knowledge that challenges the philosophical emphasis on autonomous individual reasoning.

The study applies testimony theory to concrete areas including history, law, mathematics, and psychology to show its real-world relevance.

Coady examines widespread philosophical assumptions that have dismissed testimony as unworthy compared to direct observation or logical deduction.

The book demonstrates that dependence on others for knowledge is not a weakness but a profound necessity for human understanding.

Oxford University Press publishes this rigorous philosophical examination for scholars, students, and readers interested in epistemology and knowledge.
