Co-blogger, and local big gun, Jon Kvanvig has a review out of John Greco's Ernest Sosa and His Critics. Jon is as insightful as ever, which means you won't have to judge this book simply by its cover. Looks like a great holiday stocking stuffer for the epistemologist in your life.
From the review:
"Ernest Sosa is one of the most important epistemologists of the last half-century or so, developing and defending in various places his own version of virtue epistemology. This volume contains twenty-two critical discussions of Sosa�s views in metaphysics and epistemology, together with an introduction to Sosa�s epistemology by John Greco and replies by Sosa to his critics. In general terms, the philosophical quality of the essays is high, both that of the contributors and Sosa�s replies. What I find interesting in volumes such as this one is the degree to which the criticisms offered require emendation and expansion of the view under discussion. So here I will focus on what strike me as the high points of the volume, where Sosa either amends or expands on previous work to accommodate the critical points raised in the essays."
