Neal Judisch

My main areas of interest are in metaphysics, philosophy of mind, action theory, and philosophy of religion. I am especially interested in questions that lie at the intersection of all these fields, particularly the varied questions concerning the nature of free will and the metaphysics of divine and human agency.
