- Summary:
- How do we know our current states of mind - what we want, and believe in? Jordi Fernandez proposes a new theory of self-knowledge, challenging the traditional view that it is a matter of introspection. He argues that we know what we believe and desire by 'looking outward', towards the states of affairs which those beliefs and desires are about.
