Epistemology of Modality

by Scott Shalkowski and Otávio Bueno

Claims about modality - what is necessary, possible, or impossible - abound in philosophy and go back to Plato. They are also at the heart of contemporary debates in philosophy. But what can we actually know about what is necessary, possible or impossible? This is the first book to provide a thorough introduction to the problem of modal epistemology, examining its main theories and weighing up competing arguments and solutions.
