Methods of Reason

I wrote a post about paradigmatic awareness a while back.  I wrote it while editing a couple chapters in my book.  Those chapters were concerned with epistemic rigor and the manner in which one can rightly approximate knowledge using experience, logic, and thresholds of doubt.  I believe such things to be more important than nearly any other human faculty.  Because my book is not yet completed or published, I will share someone else's work which is similar, if not quite as deliberate, to those chapters.

The Voluntary Life Podcast has a three episode series titled "How to Think for Yourself":

Part 1 is concerned with why  methods of reason are important to rational creatures and begins to address the difficulties in establishing a method of reason.
Part 2 is concerned with a brief overview of the scientific method, philosophy of science, and their relationship to epistemology.  Most important, it explains the requirements for epistemic confidence.
Part 3 is concerned with a priori reasoning and the relationship between reason and freedom.

It's encouraging to see someone else produce work that is so similar to my own, in that it makes me feel a little less crazy.  The differences between the two are also encouraging, as it makes me feel I have something to contribute to the conversation.  I am considering different distribution methods for my book.  Feel free to read more about it here.
