John Haugeland (1945 - 2010) was a Professor of Philosophy at the University of Chicago since arriving here (from the University of Pittsburgh) in the fall of 1999. He held a bachelor's degree (in physics) from Harvey Mudd College (1966) and a PhD from U.C. Berkeley (1976). His main interests included (early) Heidegger, philosophy of science, philosophy of mind (including cognitive science), philosophy of language, and stuff like that. He is the author of
Artificial Intelligence: The Very Idea (MIT 1986) and
Having Thought (Harvard 1998); the editor of
Mind Design (MIT 1981; second edition, 1997); and co-editor (with Jim Conant) of Thomas Kuhn's
The Road Since Structure (Chicago 2000). He was at work on a book tentatively titled
Heidegger Disclosed.
In addition to all that, Professor Haugeland certainly owned more nuts and bolts than most philosophers (and possibly more than any).
