Summary:
There are two common responses to skepticism, the claim that knowledge is non-existent and perhaps also unachievable: to succumb to it, or to dismiss it. Kvanvig shows how to avoid these responses by offering a theoretical development of skepticism, and arguing that epistemic reasoning may nevertheless approximate to the skeptical ideal.
