Pollock on probability in epistemology
Philosophical Studies 148 (3) (2010)
| Abstract | In Thinking and Acting John Pollock offers some criticisms of Bayesian epistemology, and he defends an alternative understanding of the role of probability in epistemology. Here, I defend the Bayesian against some of Pollock's criticisms, and I discuss a potential problem for Pollock's alternative account. | |||||||||
