What role, if any, does formal logic play in characterizing epistemically rational belief? Traditionally, belief is seen in a binary way - either one believes a proposition, or one doesn't. A less popular picture sees belief as a graded phenomenon. This book explores the relations between these two ways of seeing beliefs.
