Tim Button

Tim Button (he) is a Professor of Philosophy & Logic at UCL.

I work at the area where philosophy meets logic and mathematics. I give a brief sense of how some of these issues might fit together in my inaugural lecture.

My current research mostly looks at sets, types, and theoretical equivalence. I am writing an indefinitely extensible trilogy about Level Theory, which should form the basis of a future book. Sean Walsh and I wrote Philosophy and Model Theory (OUP, 2018); my first book was The Limits of Realism (OUP, 2013).

James Wilson and I are the joint editors of MIND.
