Recenzii
... this book provides lucid and thought-provoking descriptions of how people may acquire prejudiced beliefs in fraught socio epistemological environments.
The author's prose is clear, and he works through a great deal of difficult material in short compass. Philosophers, policymakers, and students will all profit from reading this book.
This is a well-written and thought-provoking book. It is both philosophically sophisticated and relatively accessible. Advanced students with some background in relevant areas should have no trouble following the broad outline of the argument. Researchers interested in the topics it covers (and it covers quite a few) will gain a lot from reading it. Some of them will find things to disagree with, but that is only to be expected. All told, this is a sophisticated and nuanced account of the epistemology and ethics of prejudice and prejudiced belief.
...this is what makes Begby's work so informative and such a landmark in non-ideal epistemology
And this is what makes Begby's work so informative and such a landmark in non-ideal epistemology, for by demonstrating how prejudice accords with our normal cognitive operations, it centers the humanity of all involved, even those perpetrators of so much so-called "inhumanity."
The book does an excellent job motivating inquiry into what a system of epistemic norms for agents with our specific cognitive and situational limitations would look like.
