Beschreibung
Erik Olsson's book is the most extensive and detailed study of coherence and probable truth to date. Setting new standards of precision and clarity, Olsson argues that the value of coherence has been widely overestimated. Against Coherence will make stimulating reading for epistemologists and anyone with a serious interest in truth.
