In their book, Expression and Self-Knowledge, Dorit Bar-On and Crispin Wright express their shared dissatisfaction with existing accounts of self-knowledge and engage in a rigorous and comprehensive critical debate over the merits of an expressivist approach to this topic. The authors incorporate cutting-edge research while presenting their own alternative perspectives to the so-called 'first-person privilege.'\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eBar-On defends her neo-expressivist account, addressing the objection that neo-expressivism fails to provide an adequate epistemology of ordinary self-knowledge. She also responds to new objections raised by Wright. Subsequently, Wright presents an alternative pluralist approach, and Bar-On argues in response that pluralism encounters difficulties that neo-expressivism avoids.
