Feelings of Believing
"This groundbreaking book sets out to assess the prospects for doxastic sentimentalism – epistemologically, psychologically, phenomenologically, and historically. Nuanced, subtle and trenchantly argued, Hickerson’s book breaks new ground in exploring the rich and complex nexus of relationships between cognition and sentiment."

"Hickerson's Feelings of Believing is an ambitious work, and fulfills these ambitions. It is historically sensitive, but with a modernising eye, while also being empirically informed. It will appeal to a wide variety of scholars."
