Epistemology uses some concepts that are usually understood as normative and evaluative. We talk about what a person should or should not believe or judge in certain epistemic circumstances. We evaluate beliefs or judgments with respect not only to whether they are true, but also to whether they are justified.
We evaluate the persons intellectual qualities and motivations with respect to whether she is reasonable, rational, wise, impartial, and epistemically responsible in general. This book is about this 'value turn' in epistemology, about the ethical factors in epistemology.
