Epistemic authority is compatible with autonomy, but epistemic self-reliance is incoherent. She argues that epistemic and emotional self-trust are rational and inescapable, that consistent self-trust commits us to trust in others, and that among those we are committed to trusting are some whom we ought to treat as epistemic authorities, modeled on the well-known principles of authority of Joseph Raz. These principles apply to authority in the moral and religious domains.  aIncludes bibliographical references and index.  aDescription based on online resource; title from home page (viewed on Nov. 13, 2012). 0aAuthority. 0aKnowledge, Theory of. 0aSelf. 0aTrust.08iPrint versionz9780199936472403Oxford scholarship onlineuhttp://dx.doi.org/10.1093/acprof:oso/9780199936472.001.0001
