Show PostI am now President-Elect of my dear @thebsps.bsky.social 🤘which means you might be receiving emails "from me" with urgent requests for assistance from a very new and scrambled gmail address. Obviously ignore these and direct all your urges to give me money to the BSPS fund for PhD studentships. 🙏
Show PostThis is a big deal. For the first time (I believe) the Lakatos Award goes to a book not published by one of the big commercial presses but by BSPS Open, an idealistic project to issue diamond access monographs. Small budget, top notch philosophy. Congratulations to John Norton and BSPS open!
Show PostCongratulations to John Norton for winning the 2026 Lakatos Award! I will admit that I have not read the two volumes, but his 2003 paper on the Material Theory of Induction is already a classic that I really like and cite regularly. #philsci #philosophy #hps
Show PostMethods in the Philosophy of Science: A User's Guide, edited by the inestimable @phieveigl.bsky.social (and me!), has 27 chapters from super-cool philosophers of science explaining how they do their thing, and is now open access! Our baby is free! #philsci direct.mit.edu/books/oa-edi...
