There is Some Truth in That

Philosophy

Jun 20th, 2009 by Jonathan

I’m a postdoctoral research fellow at the Arché Philosophical Research Centre at the University of St Andrews. I’m working on the AHRC-funded ‘Intuitions and Methodology‘ project.

My Ph.D. was at Rutgers University.

My research so far has fallen broadly into three areas of focus (with vague boundaries and overlap): (i) questions in epistemology about knowledge, ‘knows’, safety and sensitivity, and contextualism; (ii) questions in philosophical methodology about apriority, philosophical skepticism, and experimental philosophy; and  (iii) questions in philosophical psychology about imagination, including questions about fiction, dreaming, and counterfactual reasoning.

See my Arché personal page, my CV, and my publications and works in progress online.

    • I'm reading Al Casullo's work on the a priori today. Recently thinking it may make an interesting foil for my preferred approach.
