Lorenzo Magnani (born 1952), is an Italian philosopher who teaches philosophy of science〔(Department Web Page )〕 in the Department of Humanities, Philosophy Section, at the University of Pavia, where he is full professor and directs the Computational Philosophy Laboratory.〔(Computational Philosophy Laboratory Web Site )〕 Recently he has been (2006/2012) visiting professor at the Sun Yat-sen University in China.〔(Visiting Professor 2005-2008 )〕〔(Visiting Professor 2009-2012 )〕 In the event of the 50th anniversary of the re-building of the Philosophy Department of Sun Yat-sen University in 2010,〔The department was incorporated into that of Beijing University (Peking University) in 1952, and it was rebuilt in 1960 at Sun Yat-sen University.〕 an award was given to him to acknowledge his contributions to the areas of philosophy, philosophy of science, logic, and cognitive science.〔(Sun Yat-sen Award 2010 )〕 Magnani's primary research interests are the philosophy of science, logic, cognitive science, artificial intelligence, and philosophy of medicine. His historical research has centered on 19th and 20th century geometry and the philosophy of geometry.〔(Philosophy and Geometry, Kluwer, Dordrecht, 2001 )〕 Currently he is studying the processes of conceptual innovation and change in science also in the perspective of abductive reasoning. A major objective of his research is to create a working synthesis between epistemological and historical perspectives and investigations of representations and reasoning in cognitive science. Recently he addressed the problem of the relationships between morality and technology and the problem of violence in a philosophical and cognitive perspective.〔(University of Pavia Faculty Page )〕〔(Extended Curriculum Vitae )〕〔(Recent Italian Ministry of University Funds Received )〕〔(University of Pavia Research Page )〕 His previous positions have included: visiting researcher (Carnegie Mellon University, 1992; McGill University, 1992–93; University of Waterloo, 1993; and the Georgia Institute of Technology, 1995 and 1998–99) and visiting professor (visiting professor of Philosophy of Science and Theories of Ethics at Georgia Institute of Technology, 1999–2003; Weissman Distinguished Visiting Professor at Baruch College, City University of New York, 2003).〔(Visiting Professor at CUNY 2003 )〕 He has directed and directs many international academic programs in collaboration with USA, Chile,〔(University of Pavia International Office )〕 EU, and China.〔(Sun Yat-sen Web Page: Visiting Professor )〕〔(Sun Yat-Sen Web Page: PCS2011 International Conference )〕 Since 1998, initially in collaboration with Nancy J. Nersessian and Paul Thagard, created and promoted the MBR Conferences on Model-Based Reasoning. A Doctor Honoris Causa degree was awarded to Lorenzo Magnani by the Senate of the Ştefan cel Mare〔http://www.usv.ro/〕 University, Suceava, Romania. The award ceremony took place at the University Campus on March 16, 2012. In 2015 Lorenzo Magnani has been appointed member of the International Academy for the Philosophy of the Sciences (AIPS).〔()〕 ==Books and Edited Books== ;Books ;In Italian * ''Non-Euclidean Geometries'' (1978) (Anthology of classic texts) * ''In Behalf of Architecture'' (with other co-authors) (1987) * ''Applied Epistemology'' (1991) * ''Philosophy and geometry'' (1991) * ''Textbook of Logic: Classical Logic and Logic of Common Sense'' (co-author R.
