Nthaniel Barrett is a research fellow and member of the Mind-Brain Group at the Institute for Culture and Society (Pamplona, Spain). The main focus of his research is the nature of value and its role in experience, mind, and life, especially as examined from the perspectives of pragmatism, process philosophy, and ecological psychology. His recently published book, Enjoyment as Enriched Experience (Palgrave, 2023), draws on the philosophies of John Dewey and Alfred North Whitehead and recent scientific research to develop a theory of affect as the enrichment or deterioration of conscious activity.
