Rescher gives an overview of the discipline by setting out the general principles for reasoning about such matters as propositional knowledge and interrogative knowledge. Aimed at graduate students and specialists, Epistemic Logi c elucidates both Rescher's pragmatic view of knowledge and the field in general.
