The author argues for an account of know-how as a capacity for practical judgment, derived from Gilbert Ryle. They offer an interpretation of Ryle, correct misconceptions, point out problems with Ryle's account, and present their own view which retains Ryle's insights while avoiding his mistakes.
I argue for an account of know-how as a capacity for practical judgment-a view I derive from Gilbert Ryle. I begin by offering an interpretation of Ryle and by correcting a number of widespread misconceptions about his views in the current debate. I then identify some problems with Ryle's account and finally present my own view which, I argue, retains Ryle's insights while avoiding his mistakes.
