reviewed Scientific Progress: A Study Concerning the Nature of the Relation Between Successive Scientific Theories on November 28, 2020
Scientific Progress
Excellent. Williams uses radical skepticism like a scalpel to show the problems with foundationalism and coherentism, and then to argue for his own contextualist position. I'd always thought this was a textbook, but while it is certainly broad in scope, I'd describe more as an extensive argument from epistemology in general for his own position.
