Blind Realism (Review)
Philosophy and Phenomenological Research 55 (3):715-719 (1995)
| Abstract | I argue that Robert Almeder's "Blind Realism," although instructive, fails to show that recourse to completely justified belief defuses Gettier counterexamples. This is because Almeder's notion of complete justification involves conflating truth with "warranted assertibility," thus making truth relative to what was scientifically fashionable at the time | |||||||||
