Groups engage in epistemic activity all the time, from the collective inquiry of scientific researchers to the deliberations of juries. Yet there is still relatively little philosophical work on collective epistemology. Eleven new essays explore this practice and its relation to epistemology, political philosophy, ethics, and philosophy of science.
