He was founder, and until 2005, Director, of the University of Tasmania’s Centre for Applied Philosophy and Ethics.

While philosophy might have begun in the city, this volume asks the more unusual question of what it means to think philosophically about the city – the concepts it enfolds, the modes of life and existence it allows, the histories and future possibilities it engages. Expansive and incisive, this excellent volume situates the city at the centre of our critical and creative reflections.
