{"product_id":"9783465038801","title":"Know-how as Competence: A Rylean Responsibilist Account","description":"\u003cp\u003eWhat does it mean to know how to do something? This book develops a comprehensive account of know-how, a crucial epistemic goal for all who care about getting things right, not only with respect to the facts, but also with respect to practice. It proposes a novel interpretation of the seminal work of Gilbert Ryle, according to which know-how is a competence, a complex ability to do well in an activity in virtue of guidance by an understanding of what it takes to do so. This idea is developed into a full-fledged account, Rylean responsibilism, which understands know-how in terms of the normative guidance and responsible control of one's acts. Within the complex current debate about know-how, this view occupies a middle ground position between the intellectualist claim that know-how just is propositional or objectual knowledge and the anti-intellectualist claim that know-how just is ability. In genuine know-how, practical ability and guiding intellect are both necessary, but essentially intertwined.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Verlag Vittorio Klostermann","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47020247580912,"sku":"9783465038801","price":67.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0737\/7593\/9824\/files\/9783465038801_p0.jpg?v=1763723605","url":"https:\/\/shop-qa.barnesandnoble.com\/products\/9783465038801","provider":"Barnes \u0026 Noble (DEV)","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
