520 |a "The epistemology of testimony has experienced a growth in interest over the last twenty-five years that can be matched by few, if any, other areas of philosophy. Testimony: A Philosophical Introduction is an introduction to the epistemology of testimony that surveys this rapidly growing research area while incorporating a discussion of relevant empirical work from social and developmental psychology, as well as from the study of knowledge creation in groups. The past decade has seen a number of books on the epistemology of testimony, but there is a dearth of books that survey the current field. This book fills that gap, assessing the strengths and weaknesses of all major competing theories. All chapters conclude with Suggestions for Further Reading and Discussion Questions"--  |c Provided by publisher
