Intellectual Virtues: An Essay in Regulative Epistemology

From the ferment of recent debates about the intellectual virtues, Roberts and Wood develop an approach they call 'regulative epistemology', exploring the connection between knowledge and intellectual virtue. In the course of their argument they analyse particular virtues of intellectual life — such as courage, generosity, and humility — in detail.
