View through CrossRef
Explains what it is about the foregoing two chapters that makes them genuine examples of epistemology done Austin’s way; asks what is to be done about epistemological doctrines (for example, the doctrine that Lehrer’s Trutemp case is meant to try) that look not to be testable in the way Austin would have us test epistemological doctrines; discusses whether (what would look to be) the answer—that we should remain resolutely agnostic as to the truth of any such doctrine—represents an undue surrender of philosophical ambition; argues that no undue surrender of philosophical ambition is required to do epistemology Austin’s way.
