Research

My primary research interest is Heidegger. I have looked mostly at his early work, up to and slightly beyond Being and Time, trying to make sense of his views on logic, his existential conception of the self, and his interpretation of Kant.  I have also written on the development and demise of 19th century logic in the neo-Kantian tradition.  Currently, I am writing a series of papers on various topics on Division Two of Being and Time.  And Anthony Chemero and I are co-writing a book on phenomenology and cognitive science, to be published by Polity Press.
