Philosophy TV

On Philosophy TV, there are two discussions that might be of interest to those working on the connection between skepticism and the epistemology of disagreement and social epistemology more generally:

A discussion between Roy Sorensen and David Christensen on the epistemology of disagreement, which can be found here.

A discussion between Alvin Goldman and Jennifer Lackey on social epistemology, which can be found here.

Neuroscience and Morality

Those working on ethical skepticism will be interested to know that, next April, Princeton University Press is going to publish Patricia Churchland's Braintrust: What Neuroscience Tells Us about Morality. For information about the book, go here. On YouTube there's a video in which Churchland briefly expounds the views discussed in her book.

There has recently been much discussion of what evolutionary biology, neuroscience, and experimental psychology can tell us about the origin and epistemic credentials of our moral beliefs. The first books that come to mind right now are Richard Joyce's The Evolution of Morality (MIT Press, 2006) and the three-volume Moral Psychology (MIT Press, 2008) edited by Walter Sinnott-Armstrong.
