I wouldn't say I was influenced a lot by Gilbert Harman, though I certainly knew of him and read some of his work. This tribute to his life reflects some of the major contemporary strands of discussion in philosophy: his work on moral relativism, his scepticism about moral character, the role of belief, inference to the best explanation, and the intrinsic quality of experience. Most of what I read here makes pretty good sense to me, and where I disagree is only around the edges, and not with his main points. This article offers straightforward accessible summaries of his thinking and as such is well worth your time.
