Associate Professor

 

I work at Eindhoven University of Technology on ethical issues related to technology, risk, and uncertainty. Before coming to the Netherlands, I worked for three years at the University of Cambridge. I was a Research Fellow in the Department of History and Philosophy of Science and Director of Studies in Philosophy at St Edmund's College. I have also workled at two technical universities in Sweden: KTH and Lulea University of Technology.

I sometimes write in Swedish newspapers on political and ethical issues. Here is a selection of recent articles: Dagens Nyheter, Expressen, Dagens Nyheter, Svenska Dagbladet , Sydsvenskan, and NSD.

 

Books

 

An Introduction to Decision Theory is a textbook published by Cambridge University Press. Here is a review in Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews, and here is an errata list. I of course welcome feedback from students and lecturers. In my research monograph Non-Bayesian Decision Theory (published by Springer in 2008) I defend my favourite non-Bayesian account of decision theory against its Bayesian rivals. Here is a review in Economics and Philosophy.
