To know epistemology's history is to know better what contemporary epistemology could be and perhaps should be - and what it need not be and perhaps ought not to be. Knowledge in Modern Philosophy presents the history of one of Western philosophy's greatest challenges: understanding the nature of knowledge.

Covering questions of science and religion in the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries, this collection focuses on the work of Descartes, Hobbes, Kant and Leibniz. With original insights into the vast sweep of ways in which philosophers have sought to understand knowledge, Knowledge in Modern Philosophy reveals the origins of contemporary philosophy.
