Acceptable Premises: An Epistemic Approach to an Informal Logic Problem
James B. Freeman (Hunter College, City University of New York)
When, if ever, is one justified in accepting the premises of an argument? What is the proper criterion of premise acceptability? Providing a comprehensive theory of premise acceptability, this book answers these questions from an epistemological approach that the author calls common sense foundationalism . His work will be of interest to specialists in informal logic, critical thinking and argumentation theory as well as to a broader range of philosophers and those teaching rhetoric.
