The Routledge Handbook of Applied Epistemology

"With rich philosophical discussions on such diverse topics as Wikipedia, Google, conspiracy theories, climate science, medical research, gossip, and global finance, this pioneering collection shows just how important the study of knowledge is today in our complex, hyper-connected, and relentlessly advancing world."

Kimberley Brownlee, University of Warwick, UK

"The Routledge Handbook of Applied Epistemology offers a brilliant overview of the discipline and some excellent and timely case studies within the field, e.g., the epistemology of the internet, conspiracy theories, and the nature of expertise in climate science. I recommend it strongly to anyone interested in how epistemology can deepen our understanding of contemporary societal phenomena and challenges."

Kasper Lippert-Rasmussen, University of Aarhus, Denmark
