David Palmer

I teach philosophy at the University of Tennessee. My PhD is from the University of Texas. Prior to this, I studied at King's College London and the University of York. I specialize in ethics, metaphysics, and philosophy of action. Within these areas, my main research focuses on free will, moral responsibility, and the nature of action and agency more generally. I also work on mind, causation, and meaning in life. A question that unifies much of my work is how (and whether) our free will and agency are part of the natural causal order.
