Abstract

Recent work in epistemology has many defects. It ignores the distinction, Fatal to the standard view, Between being justified in believing and being justified in being certain. It neglects the many contextual implications of knowledge statements. It forgets that there are many things one knows without having evidence. It does not do justice to the view that knowing implies (or contextually implies) the impossibility of one's being mistaken about what one claims to know
