Scott Carson is a contemporary American philosopher associated with Ohio University, working at the intersection of philosophy of science, philosophy of religion, and classical Aristotelian-Thomistic thought. He has critically examined the epistemic and cognitive foundations of evolutionary theory, arguing that the theory of natural selection raises underappreciated philosophical problems regarding its status as scientific knowledge. His work engages broadly with questions of rationality, metaphysics, and the relationship between faith and reason.
