His starting point is that rational action requires rational belief but tolerates false belief. From there, Comesa provides a novel account of empirical evidence according to which said evidence consists of the content of undefeated experiences. This view, which Comesa calls Experientialism, differs from the two main views of empirical evidence on offer nowadays: Factualism, according to which our evidence is what we know, and Psychologism, according to which our experiences themselves are evidence. He reasons that Experientialism fares better than these rival views in explaining different features of rational belief and action. Comesa embeds this discussion in a Bayesian framework, and discusses in addition the problem of normative requirements, the easy knowledge problem, and how Experientialism compares to forms of evidentialism and reliabilism.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Juan Comesa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0198847718\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780198847717\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Oxford University Press, USA\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/13\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 240\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.10lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.30h x 6.00w x 0.70d","brand":"Juan Comesa","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":43941607342335,"sku":"9780198847717","price":90.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/products\/img_2e8d3036-b8f9-4561-8cba-14c5fdd18bdb.jpg?v=1681453906","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/being-rational-and-being-right-juan-comesaa-9780198847717","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
