The Problem of Knowledge by A.J. Ayer

The Problem of KnowledgeThe Problem of Knowledge by A.J. Ayer

My rating: 3 of 5 stars

I read a portion of this book in college and decided it was time I read the whole thing. It’s an important work in the field of epistemology, but not particularly readable. Still, Ayer was a major 20th Century philosopher and I’ve always been drawn to his work. Not this book, so much, but still it gave me a lot to think about.
