Couple of popular articles of mine 7 Dec 200718 Sep 2017 Anyone who has access to COSMOS magazine, published in Australia, will be able to find an article of mine on what good philosophers of science are for science. If you have a copy, scan it and send it to me, will you? I haven’t seen it yet. Also, I have submitted a piece to Auckland Museum magazine MQ entitled “Buffon: An evolutionary thinker?”. Kiwis should rush to the stands immediately. I have to say that I value opportunities to write for non-academics (or else, why would I blog?). Suffice it to say that I think that philosophers are to science as ornithologists are to birds. We study, try to understand, and occasionally help with conservation. This started life as a three part series on this blog, although it got substantially edited, of course. [Parts one, two, and three]. And no, Buffon was not exactly an evolutionary thinker (this came out of my PhD). Administrative History
