The Philosopher is the oldest general Philosophy Journal in the world. It provides a forum for short, original, brilliant and accessible articles. It is non-commercial and non-profit making. The Philosopher believes in principle anything can be made clear to the interested reader, and that, in the words of the Society's archivist, whilst the expression of obscurity is pardonable, the reverse is not. Articles are consdered without discrimination as to subject matter or author. The only criterion is that it must be philosophical in method. The ever present threat of intellectual strangulation by the encroaching jungle of academic style - extensive footnotes and jargon-strewn indigestible prose - is vigorously hacked away at by the editorial team of: Martin Cohen (Journal Editor) Zenon Stavrinides (Deputy Editor) Michael Bavidge (Executive Editor) Dmitry Olshansky (Psychology, and the FSR and Russia) Ahmed El-Deeb (Philosophical Quotes) Please contact Martin Cohen with any enquiries.
