After serving in the Royal Navy (1943–47), he studied at Trinity College Cambridge, earning Honours in Philosophy (1950) and Psychology (1951), and where he met Bertrand Russell. From 1952 to 1958, he taught philosophy at Christ Church, Oxford, took M.A. degrees in 1954 from both Oxford and Cambridge, and wrote his doctorate thesis ''Probability and Scientific Inference'' under the supervision of William Kneale which was released as a book in 1957.〔http://www.lawsofform.org/gsb/vita.html〕〔Spencer Brown, George (1957): Probability and Scientific Inference, London.〕 During the 1960s, he became a disciple of the innovative Scottish psychiatrist R. D. Laing, frequently cited in ''Laws of Form''. In 1964, on Bertrand Russell's recommendation, he became a lecturer in formal mathematics at the University of London. From 1969 onward, he was affiliated with the Department of Pure Mathematics and Mathematical Statistics at the University of Cambridge. In the 1970s and 1980s, he was visiting professor at the University of Western Australia, Stanford University, and at the University of Maryland, College Park.
