Brian Skyrms (born 1938) is a Distinguished Professor of Logic and Philosophy of Science and Economics at the University of California, Irvine and a Professor of Philosophy at Stanford University. He has worked on problems in the philosophy of science, causation, decision theory, game theory, and the foundations of probability. Most recently, his work has focused on the evolution of social norms using evolutionary game theory. His two recent books ''Evolution of the Social Contract'' and ''The Stag Hunt'' are both on this topic. These books use arguments and examples from evolutionary game theory to cover topics of interest to political philosophy, philosophy of social science, philosophy of language, and the philosophy of biology. Skyrms is a Fellow of the American Academy of Arts & Sciences and one of two living philosophers (along with Allan Gibbard) to be elected a Fellow of the National Academy of Sciences. ==Books== * ''Signals: Evolution, Learning, and Information'', Oxford University Press 2010 * ''The Stag Hunt and the Evolution of Social Structure'', Cambridge University Press 2004 * ''Evolution of the Social Contract'', Cambridge University Press 1996 * ''The Dynamics of Rational Deliberation'', Harvard University Press 1990 * ''Pragmatics and Empiricism'', Yale University Press 1984 * ''Causal Necessity'', Yale University Press 1980 * ''Choice and Chance: An Introduction to Inductive Logic'', Dickenson 1966, 4th ed.
