1 The full text of Sellars’s paper may be found in his Science, Perception and Reality (London: Routledge, 1963).

2 A concise introduction to the problems of ‘foundationalism’ is the article so entitled by William Alston in Dancy and Sosa (eds), A Companion to Epistemology (see under extract 1, above).

3 For a detailed treatment of many of the issues, see L. Bonjour, The Structure of Empirical Knowledge (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1985).

4 For some brilliant (but quite complex) reflections on some of the issues raised by Sellars’s paper, see J. McDowell, Mind and World (Cambridge, Mass.: Harvard University Press, 1994).

5 Two useful books on Sellars’ philosophy are J. R. O’Shea’s Wilfrid Sellars: Naturalism with a Normative Turn (Cambridge: Polity Press, 2007), and W. deVries, Wilfrid Sellars (Acumen/McGill-Queens University Press, 2005; online 2013). Of the two, deVries’s book is longer and more detailed, but also more technical at times.

6 A valuable collection of essays by leading philosophers linking Sellars’s work to topics in contemporary debates is J. R. O’Shea (ed.), Sellars and His Legacy (Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2016).

7 Two excellent online resources are the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP) with its section on Sellars’s epistemology at https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/sellars/#4 (by W. DeVries), and the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy with an entry on Sellars’s philosophy of mind at https://www.iep.utm.edu/sellars/ (by E. Rubenstein).
