Crane, TimColeman, Sam2023-07-122023-07-122019978-1-107-14199-510.1017/9781316494134.002http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14018/14019The knowledge argument is something that is both an ideal for philosophy and yet surprisingly rare: a simple, valid argument for an interesting and important conclusion, with plausible premises. From a compelling thought experiment and a few apparently innocuous assumptions, the argument seems to give us the conclusion, a priori, that physicalism is false. Given the apparent power of this apparently simple argument, it is not surprising that philosophers have worried over the argument and its proper diagnosis: physicalists have disputed its validity, or soundness or both; in response, non-physicalists have attempted to reformulate the argument to show its real anti-physicalist lesson.engThe knowledge argument is an argument about knowledgeBook chapterhttps://www.cambridge.org/core/books/knowledge-argument/knowledge-argument-is-an-argument-about-knowledge/8CEC0ED38306AA466612CFA210F7219Dhttps://orcid.org/0000-0001-9455-3957
