Research
interests I joined the Stirling department in 1996 from the University of Cambridge where I had been a British Academy Postdoctoral Research Fellow since 1993. My research interests are primarily in the philosophy of mind and philosophy of psychology, particularly at the point where philosophical concerns overlap with and feed into empirical research in psychology, cognitive science and cognitive neuroscience. Topics of recent interest include the nature of mental content, models of psychological explanation, the role and origins of self-consciousness and the possibility of thought without language. I maintain a keen interest in the history of philosophy and have published articles on Descartes, Locke, Kant and Frege. Current projects include writing Philosophy of Psychology: A Contemporary Introduction for Routledge and editing a special issue of The Monist on Self-Consciousness.
