PhD, Rutgers, 2001
Research Interests
His research and teaching backgrounds range over both philosophy and cognitive science, and especially where the two fields intertwine, such as the connectionism/ classicism debate and the nature of psychological explanation; or evolutionary psychology, "naturalized" epistemology, and questions about the impact of empirical psychology on our views of ourselves as rational (or not). Two of his current projects are an investigation of the scope and nature of a priori justification, and an empirical study of the diversity of epistemological intuitions across ethnic and soci-economic lines. Were there world enough and time, Jonathan would also do more work in philosophical aesthetics, especially on genre and the philosophy of film.
