What should we make of the vagueness we find in our language and thought? This has been one of the most debated questions in philosophy in recent decades. Crispin Wright has been a key figure in this area since the 1970s, and now at last his highly influential work on the topic is drawn together in a book.
Crispin Wright did his Ph.D. at Cambridge before being elected Prize Fellow (1969) at All Souls College Oxford, where he spent the first nine years of his career. He was appointed to the Chair of Logic and Metaphysics at St Andrews in 1978, at that time the youngest ever appointment to an established chair in philosophy in the UK. At St Andrews, his achievements included appointment (1999) to the first Wardlaw University Professorship and the foundation (1998) and Directorship for its first decade of the research centre, Arché. He is currently Global Distinguished Professor of Philosophy at New York University and Professor of Philosophical Research at the University of Stirling. Previously, he has taught at Oxford, Columbia, Michigan, Princeton, St Andrews, and at Aberdeen from 2009-15 where he held the Regius Chair of Logic and directed the Northern Institute of Philosophy.
