"The British Journal for the History of Philosophy has established itself in a few short years as one of the premier publications in the history of philosophy. In it you can count on finding essays that are informed, original, and up to the highest scholarly standards. It is as good as they come."
Daniel Garber, Princeton University
"The British Journal for the History of Philosophy takes the history of philosophy seriously, showing us why we likewise should take it seriously by showing us that issues of fundamental philosophical interest in the past are not confined to those that are the focus of current concerns. It keeps open the history of philosophy as a fruitful dimension of philosophical thinking, offering a non-parochial sense of philosophical perspective."
Stephen Gaukroger, University of Sydney
