非常小非常薄的一本書。Further Reading非常有用,把主要的且重要的要讀的文獻十分集中地列瞭齣來。大量提及SEP和IEP條目使得獲取細分主題的更多信息變得更便利。這本書雖然幾乎沒有任何新的東西(綜述為主。作者自己對維特根斯坦On Certainty的理解應該算是新的思想。除此之外就幾乎沒有瞭),倒是極具整閤性和綜閤性,行文緊湊,提及並略述瞭到瞭眾多主題(比如Virtue Epistemology, Applied Epistemology),用語(句子)非常簡潔明瞭,不存在任何閱讀上的障礙。總之,這本小書是瞭解Scepticism的本質、曆史及迴應的有用的工具!

評分作為一部零基礎哲普作品,非常好。Pritchard既能寫非常專業的論文,又能寫一手很好的哲普。但是有一定哲學基礎的讀者可能會覺得過於淺顯瞭。
Duncan Pritchard is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of California, Irvine, and Professor of Philosophy at the University of Edinburgh. His books include Epistemic Luck (OUP, 2005), Epistemological Disjunctivism (OUP, 2012), The Nature and Value of Knowledge (OUP 2010), co-authored with Alan Millar, Adrian Haddock, and Epistemic Angst (Princeton UP, 2015). In 2007 he was awarded the Philip Leverhulme Prize, and, in 2011, he was elected to a Fellowship of the Royal Society of Edinburgh.
Throughout history scepticism and the urge to question accepted truths has been a powerful force for change and growth. Today, as we are bombarded by adverts, scientific studies praising the latest superfoods, and political rhetoric, a healthy amount of scepticism is widely encouraged. But when is such scepticism legitimate - for example, as a driver of new ideas - and when is it problematic? And what role might adopting a sceptical outlook play in leading an intellectually virtuous life?
In this Very Short Introduction Duncan Pritchard explores both the advantages of scepticism, in challenging outdated notions, and also how it can have unhelpful social consequences, in generating distrust. He considers the role of scepticism at the source of contemporary social and political movements such as climate change denial, post-truth politics, and fake news. Pritchard also examines the philosophical arguments for a radical form of scepticism which maintains that knowledge is impossible, and explores some of the main responses to these arguments. Finally, he considers the part scepticism might play in applying better thinking and learning to achieve a more meaningful life.
