I regularly teach our introductory philosophy (PHIL 101) and logic (PHIL/LING 103) classes and the senior capstone seminar (PHIL 497) for majors. I also teach courses in areas such as Ethics, Epistemology, Metaphysics, and Philosophy of Mind. I have recently offered seminars on truth, contemporary metaphysics, and the philosophy of Quine. My current research interests range from ontology to philosophy of logic, to history of analytic philosophy, to philosophical and ethical issues in technology. I am currently working on a monograph entitled Beyond Naturalism: Logic and Ultimate Ontology, and a couple of new articles on truth. Recent publications include:
- R. Barnard and T. Horgan, "Truth as Mediated Correspondence," The Monist, January 2006.
- R, Barnard, "Ontology and Logical Form," in Russell-Wittgenstein: Logical Form and the Project of Philosophy, edited by Rom Harré and John Shosky, (Filosophia Press: Prague (Czech Republic)), (in press).
- R. Barnard, "Review of Theories of Truth, Frederick Schmitt, ed.," Teaching Philosophy, forthcoming 2006.
- R. Barnard, "Review of The Evolution of Reason: Logic as a Branch of Biology, by William S. Cooper," Philosophical Psychology, 17:1 (March 2004).
- R. Barnard and T. Simon, "Three Paradigms of Rational Agency," Journal of Models and Modeling, 1:2 (April 2003): 31-54.
