Presenting the main concepts and key assumptions of knowledge-first theses, Arturs
Loginsâ authoritative and engaging introduction critically evaluates some of the most
debated issues in recent epistemology. Initiated by Timothy Williamsonâs Knowledge and Its Limits, the approach ends attempts to analyse knowledge in terms of justified belief and instead adopts epistemological theorizing from knowledge as a fundamental starting point.

Logins assesses arguments for and against the knowledge-first approach, drawing on exciting developments and harsh criticisms put forward during the first quarter of the 21st century. Chapters engage with core topics concerning anti-luminosity, skepticism, self-knowledge, evidence, belief, norms of assertion and action, and recent innovations including hybrid knowledge-first approaches. Following a clear and logical thematic structure and aided by references, study questions and suggestions for further reading at the end of each chapter, this is an essential resource for any student of contemporary epistemology looking to advance their understanding of the knowledge-first program.
