Fall Courses

I am teaching two courses this fall, both of which I am pretty excited about.  The undergraduate course is philosophy of science, and it’s being taught online.  This new format is really fun and offers all sorts of new possibilities.  One of my students, for example, is taking the class from France; military students have taken them while deployed in the past as well.  The graduate course celebrates the sesquicentennial of Charles Darwin’s Origin of Species.  A couple of years ago, I did a graduate seminar on the Darwinian corpus more broadly; this went really well but was just too much reading.  I’m really looking forward to focusing on Origin, and students are signed up from several different departments around campus.

Philosophy for Everyone

I’ve just created a page for Philosophy for Everyone, a series I edit for Wiley-Blackwell.  Anyone wishing to propose a title in the series should feel free to contact me, and I have put together some series guidelines that provide more detail.  Join our Facebook group to stay current with the series!
