We have had the pleasure of working with Dr Yasmin Haddad for many years on her outstanding contributions to the philosophy of biology. It is always a pleasure to receive such positive feedback from leading philosophers like Dr Haddad.

Hi! I'm afraid I don't think I have a digital copy of the published version. Does your library have no access?

I think it's libraries and PDF dealers only until they issue a paperback

Early on in Guillermo del Toro's #Pinocchio, we are shown that the Talking Cricket has a portrait of #Schopenhauer on his wall. This curtain-raises the film’s focus on inevitable suffering, as well as the tension between will and representation that dominates Pinocchio’s world.

Proposed budget cuts a catastrophe for UK astronomy The Royal Astronomical Society (RAS) is gravely concerned at the drastic cuts to support for UK astronomy outlined by the Science and Technology Facilities Council (...

Let's face it, somehow the UK has managed to both deform and damage research (and the Higher Ed it's linked to) even while spending more on it. Quite the trick, don't know how we've managed it. ras.ac.uk/news-and-pre...

Leibniz's Law: Two things are identical if they share all predicates. An image of two checklists, one for x and one for y. Both have everything ticked, so x=y.

Does x=y? We'd like to clarify that our recent speaker, Prof Michael Rosen of @harvard.edu is a different person from poet and national treasure @michaelrosenyes.bsky.social. Despite their many commonalities, we've checked and Prof Michael does not have the property "Bear Hunt author".
