Indulge your passion for science, says [nature], but let your science be human, and such as may have a direct reference to action and society. Abstruse thought and profound researches I prohibit, and will severely punish, by the pensive melancholy which they introduce, by the endless uncertainty in which they involve you, and by the cold reception which your pretended discoveries shall meet with, when communicated. Be a philosopher; but, amidst all your philosophy, be still a man.

My name is Kevin Zollman. I have a Ph.D. in Philosophy, specializing in Game theory, Philosophy of science, and Philosophy of biology. I have written papers on the evolution of social norms using evolutionary game theory and on formal models of social epistemology. I am currently an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, PA. I received my Ph.D. from University of California, Irvine (department of Logic and Philosophy of Science) where my adviser was Brian Skyrms. Before that I received a B.S. from Kansas State University in Philosophy. While at Kansas State I was a moderately successful collegiate debater.
