Elijah Millgram's paper becomes "Was Hume a Gunman?"

Autocorrect on my new phone was set to change "Humean" to "Gunman". I suppose the Gunman theory of motivation might provide sufficient conditions for when action is motivated.

2013 schedule of talks

Thanks to generous support from the National University of Singapore (and from my Head of Department, who lets me teach more classes in some semesters to get other semesters off) I'll be traveling through the US, UK, and Australia to give talks on my research in 2013. Between colloquia, guest appearances at classes, and conference talks, I've got 61 appearances scheduled so far. It'll be a great way to get feedback on a book defending a Humean account of motivation (tentatively titled Desire's Explanations) and on a number of papers. This schedule will be updated as I get more invitations and fill in more details.
