Must We Acquire Perceptual Knowledge Recklessly?

Research output: Chapter in Book/Report/Conference proceedingChapterpeer-review

Abstract

Andrea Kern’s Identity Account is motivated by the virtuous desire to understand perceptual knowledge as a perfect feat of reason, one which is not only conclusively successful, but also known to be so. I worry, however, that the account ends up depicting acts of acquiring perceptual knowledge as necessarily reckless. Here, I explain why I have this worry, and why I think Kern has not yet fully addressed it.
