Philip Goff

A  Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Liverpool, Philip Goff is currently a Research Fellow at the Centre for Consciousness at the
Australian National University, where he is writing a monograph arguing against physicalism. Fundamentally, "I am a metaphysician who thinks metaphysicians don't think enough about consciousness. I'm developing a 'neo-Cartesian' approach to metaphysical enquiry, which takes intuitions about the nature of consciousness as its starting point."
