This volume collects the best and most influential essays on knowledge,        rationality and morality that Stephen Stich has published in the last 40 years. All        of the essays are concerned, in one way or another, with the ways in which findings        and theories in the cognitive sciences can contribute to, and sometimes reshape        traditional philosophical conversations and debates. A central theme in the essays        on epistemology and rationality is the philosophical significance of empirical work        on human reasoning done by researchers in the "e;heuristics and biases"e; tradition, and        by their critics in evolutionary psychology. In the essays on morality, a wide range        of empirical work is explored, including studies of the psychological foundations of        norms, work on the moral / conventional distinction, and empirical attempts to        determine whether humans ever act on altruistic motives. Stich was one of the        pioneers in the experimental philosophy movement, and work in experimental        philosophy plays a prominent role in many of these essays. The volume includes a new        introductory essay that offers an overview of the papers and traces the history of        how they emerged.
