Peter Marton received his Ph.D from Brown University. His research interests include epistemology, logic, history of modern philosophy (especially Descartes), philosophy of science, and metaphysics. Professor Marton's current research interest focus on epistemic paradoxes and skeptical arguments (e.g. the lottery paradox, the knowability paradox, the problem of the criterion, and arguments and counterarguments concerning the brains-in-a-vat scenario).
