Swiss Society for Logic and Philosophy of Science

I am a philosopher originally from Berne, Switzerland, who did his PhD in Geneva and spent quite some time abroad. Before becoming full-time involved with Philosophie.ch, I was working at the University of Lucerne. Since 1999, I am (managing/co-)editor of Dialectica, an international journal of philosophy.

Philosophy-wise, my background is in logic and metaphysics, though over time, I got interested in history and everything else as well.

I live in the bilingual city of Biel/Bienne and have two daughters.
