Industry Reviews

?These skillfully arranged readings should engage any student with potential for philosophy." Ernest Sosa, Brown University

?This thoughtfully edited volume is warmly to be welcomed as an extremely valuable resource for students and teachers of philosophy. It is distinctive in its breadth of coverage, ranging from classic works of ancient Greek authors to recent writings of major contemporary philosophers and focusing not only on global skepticism but also, very usefully, on many of the more specific varieties.? Jonathan Lowe, University of Durham
