Biography
Ernest Nagel was an American philosopher of science who is regarded as one of the major
figures of the logical positivist movement. Nagel was born in Nové Mesto nad Váhom (now in
Slovakia, then Vágújhely and part of the Austro-Hungarian Empire) in 1901. His mother, Frida
Weiss, was from the nearby town of Vrbové (or Verbo). He emigrated to the United States at
the age of 10 with his family and became a U.S. citizen in 1919. He earned his PhD from
Columbia University in 1931 and went on to spend his academic career there, becoming the
first John Dewey Professor of Philosophy at the University in 1955. His doctoral students
included Morton White, Patrick Suppes, Henry Kyburg, Isaac Levi, and Sidney
Morgenbesser.
Nagel made many noteworthy contributions in the fields of geometry and probability, quantum
mechanics, and the status of reductive and inductive theories of science. His book The
Structure of Science (1961) is viewed as an inaugural work in the field of analytic
philosophy of science. Other works by Nagel include An Introduction to Logic and the
Scientific Method with Morris Raphael Cohen, his CCNY teacher in 1934. In 1958, he published
with James R. Newman Gödel's proof, which provided explanation for Gödel's incompleteness
theorems to those not well trained in mathematical logic. He also served as editor of the
Journal of Philosophy (1939–1956) and the Journal of Symbolic Logic (1940-1946).
Ernest Nagel died in New York in 1985. He had a wife, Edith Haggstrom, and two sons,
Alexander Nagel (professor of mathematics at the University of Wisconsin) and Sidney Nagel
(professor of physics at the University of Chicago).
