Exploring the concept of defeat in epistemology, the book critically evaluates three perspectives: scepticism, internalism, and externalism. It argues that both sceptical and internalist views are inadequate, emphasizing the necessity of an externalist approach. The author critiques existing externalist accounts, asserting their shortcomings, and outlines the constructive efforts needed to develop a more robust alternative. This examination aims to provide a clearer understanding of defeat and its implications for belief justification in light of new information.
