Welcome to the online academic portfolio of Brett Yardley, husband, father, lover of virtue, and marketing manager turned academic philosopher. I bring contemporary social epistemology and historical medieval philosophy to bear on one another, specifically the virtue of trust and authoritative testimony. My research to date primarily focuses on Thomas Aquinas, al-Ghazali, and Saadya Gaon.
