On the positive side, he shows how progress can be made on the issues, so provocatively posed in Hume's essay, about the ability of eyewitness testimony to establish the credibility of marvelous and miraculous events. Earman's work is simultaneously a contribution to the history of ideas, the philosophy of religion, and to probability and induction.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: USItem Height: 235mmItem Length: 155mmItem Width: 18mmAuthor: John EarmanGenre: Philosophy & SpiritualityItem Weight: 332gRelease Year: 2000 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
