520 # # |a This collection is a major contribution to the understanding and evaluation of Ernest Sosa<U+0019>s profound and wide-ranging philosophy, in epistemology and beyond. A balanced, fair and critical volume, it offers a sensitive appreciation of his wide philosophical purview, a nuanced assessment of the detail of his thought, and a spur to exploring the linkages between the varied topics explored by the subtle mind of this great American scholar. The papers explore a wealth of Sosa<U+0019>s academic interests, including his work on philosophical method, the philosophy of mind and language, metaphysics, and value theory, in addition to his output on epistemology itself. It offers, for example, a rebuttal of the counterarguments to Sosa<U+0019>s reliabilist theory of introspective justification, which itself concludes with some objections to Sosa<U+0019>s stated views on the <U+0018>speckled hen<U+0019> problem. Other authors track the connections of his virtue theory to his advocacy of bi-level epistemology, provide reflections on Sosa<U+0019>s views on the epistemological tradition, and examine the nexus of his beliefs on intuition and philosophical methodology. This volume is an insightful reckoning of Sosa<U+0019>s academic account.
