Notable:
• Brian Grant's final work, Scepticism and Philosophical Methodology, published posthumously and edited by Reid Buchanan and Robin Lee, is now available.  At the time of his passing, Brian was only a few months away from having the final manuscript in the hands of the publisher.  "Brian Grant offers another extremely original, fascinating and important work.  The book provides not only one of the most sustained attempts in contemporary epistemology to take global scepticism seriously, but does so by offering a fascinating and spirited defence of the view based upon what Grant refers to as a 'truly mind-boggling but almost universally neglected' argument of Hume's in the Treatise.... The result is a captivating discussion of a very old problem from a truly novel point of view."  Now available from Georg Olms Verlag.
