Just as there appear to be situations in which every available option is morally unacceptable, so too there appear to be situations in which every available option is epistemically unacceptable. These have come to be known as 'epistemic dilemmas'. The existence of epistemic dilemmas is controversial. Some epistemologists argue that we should accept them, but there is little agreement about their nature or the contexts in which they arise. Others have argued that they are impossible in principle, or that, even if they are possible, the situations other epistemologists have taken to be epistemic dilemmas are no such thing. Presenting seventeen new essays by leading and up-and-coming epistemologists, Essays on Epistemic Dilemmas pushes the discussion forward by shedding new light on a wide range of areas where epistemic dilemmas may occur.
