The last third of the book develops the implications of this view for standard analytic epistemology; for resolving normative disputes in psychology; and for offering practical, concrete advice on how this theory can improve real people's reasoning.This is a truly distinctive and controversial work that spans many disciplines and will speak to an unusually divers ...
