@Book{1885800940, author="Archer, Avery", title="attitude of agnosticism", year="2024", publisher="Cambridge University Press", address="Cambridge, United Kingdom ; New York, NY", keywords="Agnosticism", abstract="We often describe ourselves as agnostic on a wide range of topics, such as does God exist, is String Theory true, or will the President win re-election? But what, precisely, does it mean to be agnostic? This monograph employs the tools and techniques of analytic philosophy to offer a broad account of what it means to be agnostic in both theological and non-theological contexts, and offers a critical discussion of the major descriptive accounts of agnosticism in the contemporary analytic philosophical literature. Unlike most other volumes on the subject, which approach the question from a theological point of view, this is the first book-length discussion of agnosticism from a purely philosophical, as opposed to theological, point of view. It serves as a natural starting-point for students and specialists in philosophy and anyone who is interested in the topic of agnosticism through the lens of analytic philosophy.", note="Avery Archer, George Washington University", note="Title from publisher's bibliographic system (viewed on 14 Mar 2024)", isbn="9781009214759", doi="10.1017/9781009214759", url="https://doi.org/10.1017/9781009214759", language="English" }
