"The relationship between the Strong Program and epistemic relativism is an important topic, and deserves the careful and informed discussion Seidel provides. Anyone interested in Strong Program relativism should come here and have a look."
-John K. Davies Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews
"Seidel has left no stone unturned in his attempt to get to the bottom of the epistemic relativism of the strong programme. [The book] is a sound contribution to the contemporary discussion of epistemic relativism which will have a lasting impact."
-Howard Sankey Metascience
