Field (born November 30, 1946)[2] is an American philosopher. He is Silver Professor of Philosophy at New York University and a notable contributor to philosophy of language, philosophy of mathematics, epistemology, and philosophy of mind. Field is also Distinguished Research Professor in the Department of Philosophy, University of Birmingham, UK.[3] Education and careerField earned his Ph.D. in philosophy from Harvard University under the direction of Hilary Putnam. He taught first at Princeton University, and then at the University of Southern California and City University of New York Graduate Center before joining the NYU faculty. Field was elected Fellow of the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 2003[4] and is also a past winner of the Lakatos Prize in 1986.[5] Philosophical workField's first work was a commentary on Alfred Tarski's theory of truth, which he has worked on since 1972. His current view on this matter is in favor of a deflationary theory of truth. His most influential work produced in this period is probably "Theory Change and the Indeterminacy of Reference" (Journal of Philosophy, 70(14): 462–481), in which he introduced the concept of partial denotation. In the 1980s, Field started a project in the philosophy of mathematics discussing mathematical fictionalism, the doctrine that all mathematical statements are merely useful fictions, and should not be taken to be literally true. More precisely, Field holds that the existence of sets may be denied, in opposition to Quine and Putnam.[6] Much of his current work is in semantic paradoxes. In 2008, he gave the John Locke Lectures, entitled "Logic, Normativity, and Rational Revisability."[7] Books
