Analysis of Knowledge
  1. JTB: knowledge is justified true belief
    1. Gettier: JTB can't account for epistemic luck - (a) Smith and Jones at the job interview (b) Brown in Barcelona
      1. Nozick: tracking theory and the 4 conditions - JTB and must satisfy (3) P > S and (4) ¬P > ¬S
        1. But there remains problems with ethical and mathematical knowledge - the former because of antirealism and the later because of human fallibility when it comes to the proof method
          1. Scepticism: what if we're dreaming or in a vat or think something is true but have yet to discover its falsity? Think about geocentric to heliocentric paradigm shift...
          2. Belief: what about Albert who is doing a history test and thinks that he has forgotten when Elizabeth I died, thus not believing he knows the answer, but in fact correctly answering? Is he without belief?
