Introduction

Jenifer agel is an expert on our intuitions about knowledge. We go through life drawing what feels like natural distinctions between knowing something and merely, say, suspecting it. Jenifer: I'm detecting a state of knowledge in you just by looking at you, just by being aware of which way you're facing. And this is actually a very ordinary part of human social existence. When we interact as human beings, we're not just seeing each other as moving limbs. We're see each other as having mental states that are guiding what we do.
