I am pleased to announce the self-publication of my book, A Validation of Knowledge: A New, Objective Theory of Axioms, Causality, Meaning, Propositions, Mathematics, and Induction. The book is the realization of my life’s work in epistemology. The ebook, as a PDF file, is available for purchase from my online bookstore for $5. (Update, 10/17/2020: […]
First, I am nearly done with my book on epistemology, which has been nearly thirty years in the making. An advance copy is now being read by colleagues. Here is a draft of the cover.

The best article I have read on the COVID-19 pandemic is An Epistemic Crisis, by Jeffrey A. Tucker, on the website of the American Institute for Economic Research (AIER), an eminent pro-freedom think tank. This article, however, is not merely economic; it is primarily epistemological, as its title suggests. I wish I could quote the […]
