Description

Mark Wilson explores our strategies for understanding the world. We frequently cannot reason about nature in the straightforward manner we anticipate, but must use alternative thought processes that reach useful answers in opaque and roundabout ways; and philosophy must find better descriptive tools to reflect this.

Mark Wilson is Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at the University of Pittsburgh and the author of Wandering Significance (OUP 2006). He has written widely on the relationships that bind together science, language and mathematics. He formerly edited the North American Traditions Series for Rounder records.
