Publisher's Synopsis
Empiricists believe that all knowledge comes from our perceptions of the world around us. But in rhe Problems of Philosophy, Bertrand Russell asks a fundamental question: "Is there any knowledge in the world which is so certain that no reasonable man could doubt it?" His answer sketches out the metaphysical and epistemological views that he continued to develop for the rest of life--views with which anyone interested in philosophy should be familiar. An excellent introduction to understanding how we know what we know.
