Precis of The Objects of Credence

Anna Mahtani

Economics and Philosophy, 2024, vol. 40, issue 2, 469-471

Abstract: The Objects of Credence grew from a simple insight, which is that credence claims are opaque (or ‘hyperintensional’). This central idea can be illustrated using the following example: (1) Tom has a high credence that George Orwell is a writer. (2) Tom has a low credence that Eric Blair is a writer.
