Robert Hanna (pictured above with several crystalline instruments of philosophical analysis) is a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado, Boulder. He received his Ph.D. in philosophy from Yale in 1989, and his honours B.A. in philosophy from the University of Toronto.  He is a Canadian by birth and a naturalized US citizen.  He is passionately committed to philosophy, a few people (especially MTH and ETH), and some other things.  And he loves the weather for its own sake. His autobiography, when he gets around to completing the life on which it is based, will be ironically entitled *My Idea of a Good Time*.  His areas of research and specialization include (1)  Kant, (2) the history of analytic philosophy, (3) philosophical logic, (4) the philosophy of mind, cognition, and action, and (5) ethics.  In connection with those areas, he is the author of four books -- Kant and the Foundations of Analytic Philosophy (Clarendon/Oxford Univ. Press, 2001),  Kant, Science and Human Nature (Clarendon/Oxford University Press, 2006), Rationality and Logic (MIT Press, 2006), and Embodied Minds in Action, co-authored with Michelle Maiese (Oxford Univ. Press, forthcoming in late 2008) -- and some journal articles. During 08-09 he will be a visiting professor/temporary lecturer in the Faculty of Philosophy at University of Cambridge, and a bye-fellow of Fitzwilliam College. His Cambridge e-mail address is: rah47@cam.ac.uk
