The Epistemology Research Guide
 
 




My aim here has been to provide a convenient list of resources for those working in contemporary analytic epistemology. I have focused primarily on gathering links to professional papers available online. Please send comments, suggestions, or recommended links to Dr. Keith Korcz at keithk@louisiana.edu.

The links to papers are now also organized by subject. See the Epistemology Research Guide: Subject Index.

Last Modified: 4/14/08

Links are up to date as of 6/07.

NEW!: The 1K barrier has been broken - 1,059 papers are now linked here.

7. Buying Philosophy Books Online
A number of useful philosophy books are out of print and, in most places, local bookstores are unlikely to have a good selection of relevant books. There are, however, some excellent free resources for finding out of print books on the Internet. I have collected a large set of links to these resources on my Bookhound Page. What follows is a brief description of some of the most useful of these resources.

There are thousands of bookstores around the world which have their catalogs of used books online, but searching each of these is impractical. However, it is sometimes useful to be able to contact particular stores which specialize in philosophy books. I have linked three of the largest of these here. Fortunately, there are meta-search engines for such stores. For example, one of the largest of these, Abebooks, lists over 100 million books from over 13,000 independent used-book stores around the world. You can search such databases by keyword, author, title, subject, publisher, price, binding, country, etc.

Better yet, there are meta-meta search engines. Perhaps the largest of these is Bookfinder.com, which searches 10 meta-search engines devoted to used books (including Abebooks) plus 8 major online sellers of new books. Bookfinder searches the inventories of over 20,000 booksellers around the world, and its database contains over 125 million books. There are also many other such meta-search engines, most devoted to comparing prices for new books, and these can be found on my Bookhound Page here. The main drawback to such meta-meta search engines is that the searches take more time than those of mere meta-search engines.

Of course, it is important to be careful when ordering anything online, and I can't vouch for any bookstores you might contact through my links. I can say that I have ordered scores of books over the past several years using these resources and have been fortunate enough to never have had any sort of problem. Another thing to be careful about is shipping and handling charges, which vary considerably from store to store. You can sometimes save money by paying more for the book and less for S&H.

Happy Hunting!
