First published in 2002. The present work is chiefly concerned with the task of overcoming certain forms of scepticism that have plagued and perplexed philosophers throughout the ages. Slote overcomes some of the major traditional forms of epistemological scepticism by showing the reasonableness of belief in an external world.
