Abstract:
This volume is a collation of original contributions from the key actors of a new trend in the contemporary theory of knowledge and belief, that we call 'dynamic epistemology'. It brings the works of these researchers under a single umbrella by highlighting the coherence of their current themes, and by establishing connections between topics that, up until now, have been investigated independently. It also illustrates how the new analytical toolbox unveils questions about the theory of knowledge, belief, preference, action, and rationality, in a number of central axes in dynamic epistemology: temporal, social, probabilistic and even deontic dynamics.
