This site contains information about Philosophy, Philosophy at Lawrence University, and my own work--including online syllabi for the courses I teach. I hope you enjoy your visit.

The links near the top of each page are to the main sections of this site; those immediately below on this page are to "special attractions."

• Ryckman's Logic Works.  This little web contains information of use to students studying logic. It is also a logic lab for students who wish to put their knowledge of logic to use in developing the web.

• Philosophy of Language Links.   This is a fairly substantial list of online papers in the philosophy of language.

• A Berkelean Conversation.   A brief conversation that occurred a few years ago and which illustrates one of Berkeley's responses to an important criticism of his view.

• Postmodernist Kuhnian Tribute.   A friendly jab at a view that is all too often accepted uncritically.
