Professor A.C. Grayling

Anthony Grayling's interests lie in philosophical logic, the theory of knowledge, and the history of modern philosophy. His research focuses chiefly on the role of epistemic constraints in experience of thought about individuals, and most of what he has written (both in relation to contemporary debates and in scholarly work in the history of philosophy) relates directly or indirectly to this matter, which requires discussion among other things of truth, meaning, concept-formation, the modalities, and the question of realism.
He also has an interest both practical and theoretical in questions of human rights and related ethical problems.
