The Philosophers' Magazine

The centre piece of Issue 42 is a forum on the legacy of the Enlightenment. It starts with a pugnacious debate between Dan Hind and Ophelia Benson, followed by very different contributions from Frank Furedi, Ziauddin Sardar, John Haldane, Craig Nelson, Brian O'Connor, Giles Fraser and Ted Morris. The issue also features interviews with Roger Scruton and Lewis Wolpert, Ray Sorensen on philosophy and images, Hari Cavel on organ donation, Paul Bishop on psychoanalysis, and much more. Plus News, Mediawatch, Picture This, and all the usual regulars.
