Abstract

AbstractIn the Meno, Socrates asks why knowledge is a better guide to acting the right way than true belief.

I shall argue that the puzzle cannot be solved as long as we conceive of knowledge as a kind of belief, or allow our conception of knowledge to be governed by the contrast between knowledge and belief.
