Description:
Should our beliefs be proportioned to our evidence? Are we doing something wrong in believing with little or no evidence? And may our beliefs be based partly or wholly on moral considerations? These questions are harder than you think.
Review Quotes:
"In this brilliant book, Scott Stapleford and Elizabeth Jackson defend radically different positions on the crucial question of what we should believe. We are treated to a masterclass in philosophy made fun, clear, and exciting. The cases put by both authors are so compelling that the reader may well find herself gently guided to see the clear truth of one of their positions, only to have her newly established philosophical serenity immediately undercut by the other. This is a fantastic rollercoaster of a book!"
