Biography
Matthew J. Cull is a Postdoctoral Research Fellow at Trinity College Dublin, Ireland. Their work covers a variety of topics in transgender and feminist philosophy, social and political philosophy, philosophy of language, and social ontology.
“Transgender Philosophy: The Basics is a pioneering book that is accessible, engaging, and fun. It successfully draws connections between questions of social significance that students are already interested in, and questions in metaphysics and epistemology, emphasizing why philosophy can be useful and illuminating for students and general readers alike.”
- Esa Díaz-León, Associate Professor of Philosophy at the University of Barcelona, Spain.“Transgender Philosophy: The Basics is the perfect book to put in the hands of anyone who wants to understand transgender philosophy, and to understand it from the viewpoint of those who actually are transgender. It’s exciting, engaging, accessible, careful, gentle, and deep. Don’t miss it.”
- Sophie Grace Chappell, Professor of Philosophy at The Open University, UK.
