Bryn Browne

Bryn Browne

Dr. Brynmor ('Bryn') Browne is a philosopher, who currently lectures at the University of Wales, Lampeter.

He is most noted for his papers on ethics and particularly on the subject of moral luck, in which he argues that moral luck is only troubling because we mistakenly tend to think of moral assessment as bound up with punishment. He argues that, once we correct our thinking, cases of moral luck cease to be troubling.
