This volume investigates the epistemic status of non-visual sensory modalities and their role in justifying belief and knowledge. Editors Berit Brogaard and Dimitria Electra Gatzia compile a series of essays from prominent philosophers who examine how touch, smell, hearing, and emotional perception contribute to our understanding of the world. The collection challenges the traditional ocularcentric bias in epistemology by providing rigorous frameworks for how non-visual experiences function as sources of evidence.
