About mePh.d. in U.S. environmental history with dissertation about social movement that saved the redwoods, M.A. in 19th century French intellectual history (the Polish question), B.A. in Philosophy with a concentration in religious thought, and undergrad thesis on Wittgenstein's religious point of view. Now a retired scholar/teacher from California who is living in Thailand and teaching English to young monks.
