Welcome to First Person Philosophy!
My name is Dr. Mike Miller, and I'm an Associate Professor of Philosophy at Mount St. Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland, and I'm here to introduce you to some incredible philosophers and their remarkable ideas!
The philosophers in this series - many of the big names in the history of philosophy, including Plato, Aristotle, Aquinas, Descartes and Mill, and contemporary philosophers alike - will tell you exactly what you need to know about their lives, books, and ideas.
I received my PhD from Boston College where I specialized in Medieval Philosophy. My dissertation was on Thomas Aquinas, divine power and human freedom - fun stuff! I enjoy learning all kinds of wisdom, but I have a special interest in metaphysics and Islamic Philosophy. I love to teach and introduce others to philosophy, and I hope you enjoy learning more from these great thinkers.
