The aim of this book is to guide the reader through the realm of philosophical thought that deals with the problem of knowledge. It starts with a journey through the most well-known and familiar paths of the two classic philosophical movements, Rationalism and Empiricism.
It then progresses into the more challenging roads of Pragmatism for a more analytical and in-depth acquaintance with a philosophical stream that is, of course, much newer compared to the previous ones, yet much more mature and simultaneously rich in precursor ideas that especially flourished in the twentieth century.
Thus, through this journey, both the philosophy student and the non-specialist reader are offered the opportunity to be introduced in a simple and understandable way to the area of the Theory of Knowledge.
By studying the final chapters, the more knowledgeable reader in the field of philosophy is introduced to a second level of reflection concerning the problem of knowledge, where the transition from the theory of knowledge to the pragmatic theory of meaning, truth, and scientific inquiry takes place.
