Timothy Desmond

Timothy Owen Desmond, who also goes by Tod, decided to dedicate his life to studying philosophy during his first semester at Boston College, where he earned a B.A. with a major in Philosophy and Political Science in 1993. For the next thirteen years he studied and wrote about philosophical and cosmological topics while working on a tree farm in Southern Maryland, and then while working at various other jobs in Boston and Washington, D.C. In 2006 he went back to school to earn a Master of Liberal Studies degree from Georgetown University. After that he earned an M.A. in Political Science with a concentration in Alternative Futures Studies from the University of Hawai’i in Manoa, and, finally, a Ph.D. in Philosophy and Religion with a concentration in Philosophy, Cosmology, and Consciousness from the California Institute of Integral Studies. He especially enjoys writing about the parallels between psychology and physics.
