It is the first volume focused solely on philosophical issues related to inquiry.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eInquiry is a fundamental human practice. We have questions, and we want answers. These questions span numerous domains and range from the trivial to questions of the utmost importance. Without inquiry, and successful inquiry in particular, our fate is bleak. Inquiry is also familiar. Everyone engages in inquiry. In fact, inquiry (of some sort) is something that we engage in every day. However, while inquiry is both fundamental and familiar, only recently have epistemologists turned to focus explicitly on inquiry. The result is a growing literature concerning questions like the following: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eDoes inquiry have an aim?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIf so, what is the aim of inquiry?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat norms govern inquiry?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eHow are epistemic norms and norms of inquiry related?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat does inquiry look like with an epistemic division of labor?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eIs it ever permissible to interfere with the inquiry of another person?\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eWhat is the relationship between inquiry and belief?

It will appeal primarily to scholars and graduate students working in epistemology, philosophy of language, philosophy of mind, and philosophy of science.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Routledge","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":46863138521239,"sku":"9781032914329","price":13149.0,"currency_code":"INR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0666\/3471\/1191\/files\/9781032914329.webp?v=1769969032","url":"https:\/\/atlanticbooks.com\/products\/inquiry-philosophical-perspectives-9781032914329","provider":"Atlantic Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
