Fuller, Steve
Steve Fuller is Auguste Comte Professor of Social Epistemology at the University of Warwick. Originally trained in history, philosophy and sociology of science, Fuller is the author of 25 books, which most recently have covered visions of a trans- and post- human future (or ‘Humanity 2.0’) and the current post-truth condition – especially its likely impact on the university and knowledge production more generally.
