Knowledge on Trust is a rich, multi-faceted, and carefully argued
work

its interesting throughout. Since everyone working on testimony
should read Knowledge on Trust, I have a good reason for thinking

Faulkners positive proposal is intriguing, and worthy of much
further reflection. I recommend his book highly to anyone
interested in these challenging issues.
