ABOUT

BIOGRAPHY

Scottish by birth, I grew up in Yorkshire and returned to live and work in Scotland. I now live and work in Somerset.

I was an academic, concentrating on environmental philosophy in the latter part of my career. My books have been published in the UK, the United States, and China, and include an award-winning monograph.

I graduated from Oxford University with an MA (Hons) in PPE, and a B.Phil and D.Phil in Philosophy.
