I'd like a good beginner-friendly overview of the field of epistemology. Does /lit/ have any recommendations?

John Locke and Hume explain it pretty well, and then this bad boy >>24742016 comes in and fills in the gaps

What would Kant say to OP's picture?
>>
>>24741915
I own picrel for a quick introduction. Then there's more sociological treatments like Berger and Luckmann's "The Social Construction Of Reality", Thomas Kuhn's "Structure Of Scientific Revolutions" and Karl Mannheim's "Ideology And Utopia".

For more a philosophical treatment, the aforementioned Kant, Locke and Hume + Descartes, Roger & Francis Bacon, William James and Charles Sanders Peirce. Basically most philosophers in the Anglo-American and general analytic tradition are your best bets. Continental philosophy tends towards sociology too much and "power/knowledge" discourse although what i stated previously could also be useful.

Forgot pic. Also Pierre Bayle and Thomas Bayes are allegedly good but I haven't read either.
