Alexander Bryan Johnson

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Alexander Bryan Johnson (17861867) was a notable philosopher and banker. Born in Gosport, England, at age 16 he emigrated to the USA. His work was little recognised in his own time, and this remained the case for nearly a century after his death. His work can now be seen to have anticipated the thrust of logical positivism and theories of modern linguistics.
