Michael Alan Prestwood is an independent philosopher, author, and creator of TouchstoneTruth. His work explores philosophy, science, critical thinking, history, and practical wisdom for general readers. He is developing TouchstoneTruth, a science-first philosophy focused on flourishing, realism, belief calibration, and the disciplined evaluation of ideas.
His current work includes 30 Philosophers: A New Look at Timeless Ideas and essays on epistemology, metaphysics, ethics, philosophy of science, and public philosophy. His goal is to make philosophy clear, grounded, and useful without draining it of wonder.
