Description

Tackling some of the issues concerning a priori knowledge, this book attempts to identify the primary epistemological issues and explore the relationships among them. Four main questions are tackled: what is a priori knowledge?; is there a priori knowledge?; what is the relationship between the a priori and the necessary?; and what is the relationship between the a priori and the analytic? The author offers an assessment of some recent work that bears most directly on issues concerning the a priori.
