Hello, /lit/.

I need a book that goes deep into epistemology without any ideological bullshit. Basically, a book that gives me the right tools to construct a mental model for sorting and processing beliefs, assumptions from actual Truth.

Thank you.

Might as well start with ancient metaphysics, that's what I did

Sextus Empiricus.
Descartes' first meditation.
Hume.
Kant's antinomies.

Virtually everything else is secular religion or humanist weakness.

Actually aside from Kant and Descartes, I think Berkeley is right up there with the must reads. Don't know why someone would have to read Hume for any reason other than to learn how to be pompous articulate

What >>17447116 said. Read Kant’s critique. Listen to the Bernstein lectures about it.
