This volume investigates the intersection of traditional philosophical inquiry and empirical methodology, specifically questioning how lay intuitions and social data inform foundational concepts in law, epistemology, and aesthetics. The editors, Joshua Knobe, Tania Lombrozo, and Shaun Nichols, curate a collection of peer-reviewed papers that apply experimental techniques to long-standing philosophical problems. By utilizing quantitative data and behavioral studies, the contributors argue that philosophical claims regarding human judgment and social structures require rigorous empirical validation to remain relevant in contemporary discourse.
