A.W. Carus received a PhD in history from the University of Cambridge and a PhD in philosophy from the University of Chicago. He is Visiting Research Fellow at the Munich Center for Mathematical Philosophy at Ludwig-Maximilians-Universität Munich. Carus has written many papers on Carnap, Gödel, logical empiricism, and philosophy of social science.Michael Friedman is currently Suppes Professor of Philosophy of Science at Stanford University, having previously worked at Princeton, Indiana, and the University of Illinois at Chicago. He obtained his PhD in philosophy at University of Pittsburgh. Friedman is best known for his books and papers about Kant's philosophy of science, Carnap and logical empiricism, and general relativity.Wolfgang Kienzler studied for his doctorate in philosophy at the University of Konstanz. He is now a Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Jena. His research spans early analytical philosophy, the history of logic, and philosophy of language, and he has written numerous articles on Husserl, Kant, Carnap, and Wittgenstein.Alan Richardson is Professor of Philosophy at the University of British Columbia. He undertook his PhD at University of Illinois at Chicago. Richardson's main interests are in the history of the philosophy of science and he has written many papers on Carnap and logical empiricism in their broader contexts. He is currently working on a book about the lasting effects of logical empiricism and other "scientific philosophy" on the research organization of philosophy today.Sven Schlotter gained a PhD in philosophy from the University of Jena. He has written many papers on the local and historical context of Frege and neo-Kantianism, and he is currently working on a book about Frege's local and intellectual context. Schlotter is interested in the history of analytical philosophy, as well as the local history of Jena.Rudolf Carnap (1891-1970) taught at Vienna, Prague, Chicago, and UCLA during his long and distinguished career.
