Oliver Lean
Oliver Lean is a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Calgary. His research takes an evolutionary view of human perception, thought and language, and explores its implications for foundational issues in metaphysics and the philosophy of science. In particular, he explores to what extent the Darwinian view of these phenomena necessitates some form of pragmatism about their contents – whether in a limited or a global sense.
