Dr. Miller has interests in a variety of topics in metaphysics,
epistemology, and the philosophy of mind, but most of
his energy recently has gone into questions in applied
ethics and ethical theory. He is particularly interested
in human responsibilities (if any) to the non-human world:
animals, the environment, machines. This leads both to
other applied topics such as ethical, social, and political
questions about agriculture, and to such theoretical questions
as the nature and significance of species and the use
of the fact/value distinction in the environmental sciences.
He retired from teaching in 2003.
