Who We Are
Daniel Bonevac is a co-founder of BriefLogic and a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Texas at Austin. He was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, majored in philosophy at Haverford College, and got his MA and PhD in philosophy from the University of Pittsburgh, working primarily with Wilfrid Sellars, Gerald Massey, and Carl Hempel.
Professor Bonevac's research focuses on the intersection of metaphysics, philosophical logic, and ethics. His first book, Reduction in the Abstract Sciences, received the Johnsonian Prize from The Journal of Philosophy. He has written four other books—Deduction, The Art and Science of Logic, Simple Logic, and Worldly Wisdom—and edited or co-edited three others—Today's Moral Issues, Beyond the Western Tradition, and Understanding Non-Western Philosophy. In addition to the book he is publishing with Casey Jones, he is currently writing a book on moral reasoning entitled Ways of the World, and editing a volume, Introduction to World Philosophy, with Stephen Phillips, which will soon be published by Oxford University Press.
Professor Bonevac's recent articles include "Against Conditional Obligation" (Noûs, 1998), "Sellars v. the Given" (Philosophy and Phenomenological Research, 2002), "Reflection Without Equilibrium" (Journal of Philosophy 2004), "Free Choice Permission Is Strong Permission" (Synthese, 2005, with Nicholas Asher), and "The Conditional Fallacy" (Philosophical Review, 2006, with Josh Dever and David Sosa).
