Biography
Brian Ellis is Professor Emeritus of philosophy at La Trobe University, Australia.
‘Social Humanism: A New Metaphysics by Professor Brian Ellis is a very important book that sets out the secular, metaphysical basis for a social humanism that can advance the well-being of humanity at a social and indeed global level. ...I would urge all thinking people to read this book and tell everyone they can about it.’ – Gideon Polya
