Valerie Tiberius[2] is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Minnesota, an institution she has been affiliated with since 1998.[3][4] She has published numerous reviewed papers, as well as five books - Deliberation about the Good: Justifying What We Value; The Reflective Life: Living Wisely With Our Limits; Moral Psychology: A Contemporary Introduction; Well-Being as Value Fulfillment: How We Can Help Each Other to Live Well; and What Do You Want Out of Life? A Philosophical Guide to Figuring Out What Matters.[4] Much of her work has taken a practical, empirical approach to philosophical questions, trying to show how these disciplines can improve the world for the better.[3]

Education and career

Tiberius received a bachelor's degree in philosophy from the University of Toronto in 1990, before going on to receive a master's and doctorate in philosophy from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1992 and 1997, respectively.[4] Her doctoral thesis was titled Deliberation About the Good,[4] which later became the basis for her first book.[4] After receiving her doctorate, Tiberius accepted a position as assistant professor at Franklin and Marshall College, before accepting an assistant professorship at the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities in 1998.[4] She was promoted to associate professor in 2004, and to full professor in 2011.[4]

Research areas

Tiberius's work has focused on ethics and moral psychology, with a special interest in applying Humean principles to modern philosophical questions.[3] Much of her work is centered at the junction of practical philosophy and practical psychology, examining how both disciplines can meaningfully improve lives.[3] Much of her work takes a non-traditional empirical approach to traditional philosophical questions.[3]

Publications

Tiberius has published a number of peer-reviewed papers, as well as five books - Deliberation about the Good: Justifying What We Value; The Reflective Life: Living Wisely with our Limits; Moral Psychology: A Contemporary Introduction; Well-Being as Value Fulfillment: How We Can Help Each Other to Live Well; and What Do You Want Out of Life? A Philosophical Guide to Figuring Out What Matters.[4] She has also contributed numerous other book chapters, introductions, and other articles.[3]

The Reflective Life: Living Wisely with our Limits

Tiberius's second book, The Reflective Life: Living Wisely With Our Limits, attempts to bridge the gap between theoretical philosophy and day-to-day life, providing an explanation for why anyone should care about issues of ethical inquiry.[5] She does so by bringing a Humean approach to the ideas of reflective values and reflective virtues.[5] The viewpoint Tiberius presents represents a novel synthesis of ancient philosophy with modern phenomenology and cognitive psychology. Tiberius's volume is one of the first attempts - ever - to deal with the implications of introspection illusion, the adaptive unconscious, affective forecasting, and their implications for modern ethical theory.[6]
