A priori knowledge

About this book

Many philosophers are again examining the traditional topic of a priorii knowledge, or knowledge that does not depend on sensory experience. This volume collects essays on the subject by well-known thinkers such as A.J. Ayer, W.V. Quine, Barry Stroud, C.I. Lewis, Hilary Putnam, Roderick M. Chisholm, Saul A. Kripke, Albert Casullo, R.G. Swinburne, and Philip Kitcher. Includes an introduction by the editor and an extensive bibliography. --From publisher's description.
