It’s an honor and a pleasure to announce this year’s Carnap Lecturer, Prof. Peter Carruthers, Distinguished University Professor of Philosophy at the University of Maryland. His primary research interests for most of the last thirty years have been in philosophy of mind, philosophy of psychology, and cognitive science. Prior to that he trained as a Wittgensteinian, and published a couple of monographs on Wittgenstein's Tractatus. 

Before his appointment at Maryland, he was Director of the Hang Seng Centre for Cognitive Studies at the University of Sheffield (UK). He published numerous books on aspects of the mind, including its modular architecture, consciousness, self-knowledge, animal minds, folk psychology and social cognition, and most recently human motives.
