This checklist covers essential topics in epistemology, discussing the tripartite theory of knowledge, critiques of this theory, and the distinctions between reality and appearance as noted by philosophers. It explores skepticism and its origins, along with the challenges of infinite regress in epistemology. The responses also address rationalist and empiricist approaches to these issues and clarify terms like knowing how versus knowing that, and the differences between belief, opinion, and truth. A glossary of relevant philosophical terms is included for further reference.
