Eric Margolis
I am a professor of philosophy at The University of British Columbia. I received my PhD from Rutgers University and held appointments at Rice University and the University of Wisconsin before coming to UBC in 2008. My research is largely concerned with the nature of human concepts. I am interested in the way that concepts allow us to represent the world and in the innate features of the mind that make the human conceptual system possible. For a free electronic copy of my book The Building Blocks of Thought: A Rationalist Account of the Origins of Concepts (Oxford University Press), please visit PhilArchive.org or Oxford Academic.
