Ethno-Epistemology

"This is a timely and exciting volume, addressing from various directions the question of whether contemporary analytic epistemology is Anglophone in some problematic way, and exploring the prospects for cross-linguistic and cross-cultural epistemology. These are important issues, and the present volume makes a compelling case for their relevance." Allan Hazlett, Washington University in St. Louis, USA
