What is knowledge? How does it differ from mere belief? Do you need to be able to justify a claim in order to count as knowing it? How can we know that the outer world is real and not a dream?

Questions like these are ancient ones, and the branch of philosophy dedicated to answering them - epistemology - has been active for thousands of years. In this thought-provoking Very Short Introduction, Jennifer Nagel considers these classic questions alongside new puzzles arising from recent discoveries about humanity, language, and the mind. Nagel explains the formation of major historical theories of knowledge, and shows how contemporary philosophers have developed new ways of understanding knowledge, using ideas from logic, linguistics, and psychology. Covering topics ranging from relativism and the problem of scepticism to the trustworthiness of internet sources, Nagel examines how progress has been made in understanding knowledge, using everyday examples to explain the key issues and debates

Soft and Restful Sleep
Color: White, Size: Queen Size Set of 2
I’ve been using this set of pillows and I really like the comfort they provide. They are soft to the touch but still offer the right support for my neck and head, helping me sleep more relaxed and wake up without tension. They also feel cool throughout the night, making my rest more comfortable and uninterrupted. I love this pillows!
