In fourteen new chapters, a group of international authors, including many of the best-known in the field, explore core themes from his work, including epistemological relativism, the epistemic aims of education, the critical spirit, intellectual virtue, autonomy and trust, and epistemic diversity. They also explore the connections between his work and newly emerging themes, such as educational ideals in politics, free speech, ignorance, and epistemic justice. Renowned as both a commentator on and a practitioner of critical thinking, the book brings Siegel’s work into the 2020’s and connects it with the major applied philosophical and educational issues of our time and includes a major new chapter by Siegel himself. This book will be of great interest to scholars, upper undergraduate students and graduate students in fields such as the philosophy of education and theoretical and applied epistemology as well as to student teacher and practicing teachers in fields such as critical thinking and science education.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoListParagraphCxSpFirst\" style=\"margin-left: 18.0pt; mso-add-space: auto;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;\"\u003eBen Kotzee\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; mso-bidi-font-family: Calibri; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-latin;\"\u003e is Professor of Philosophy of Education and Head of the Department of Education and Social Justice at the University of Birmingham.
