Professor of Philosophy. Academic philosopher known as the proponent of quasi-realism in meta-ethics and a defender of Neo-Humean views on a variety of topics. Clarity of prose has helped to make the issues that he takes up accessible, and the positions that he defends attractive, both within and beyond the bounds of our discipline.
