The essays at this site, addressing many philosophical, historical, scientific, religious, economic, legal, and political issues, range from the fully annotated and technical to more informal and discursive discussions, often originally written for undergraduate classes. Many items therefore should be intelligible to those not familiar with all the arcana of academic philosophy, or with academic philosophy at all. This is done deliberately, since the trend, by which philosophy has obscured and esotericized itself and mostly dropped out of popular and literate culture, should be resisted. Work of a similar range, with the appropriate philosophical orientation and grounding, is acceptable and desired.

Dictionary of Philosophical Terms and Names

This is a concise guide to technical terms and personal names often encountered in the study of philosophy. What you will find here naturally reflects my own philosophical interests and convictions, but everything is meant to be clear, accurate, and fair, a reliable source of information on Western philosophy for a broad audience. The curriculum vitae elsewhere on this site describes my experience in academic life.

Although the entries are often brief, many include links to electronic texts and to more detailed discussions on this site or in other on-line resources, including:

• "The Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy" ("IEP"),
• "The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy" ("SEP"),
• "Tom Stone's EpistemeLinks.com" ("ELC"),
• "The Encyclopædia Brittanica Online" ("EB"),
• "The Columbia Encyclopedia" ("ColE"),
• "The Perseus Digital Library" ("PP"),
• "Mathematical MacTutor" ("MMT"),
• "Peter Saint-André's The Ism Book" ("ISM"),
• "Eric Weisstein's World of Scientific Biography" ("WSB"),
• "Chris Eliasmith's Dictionary of Philosophy of Mind" ("DPM"),
• "The Catholic Encyclopedia" ("CE"),
• "Kristin Switala's Feminist Theory Website" ("FTW"),
• "The Fallacy Files from Gary N. Curtis" ("FF"), and
• "Stephen Downes's Guide to the Logical Fallacies" ("GLF").

Links to these and other resources listed in the "Also see . . . " list at the end of a dictionary entry—along with references to on-line texts—will appear in a second browser window.

For convenient access to the work of many Internet lexicographers, see: "Bob Ware's OneLook Dictionaries" and "Robert Beard's yourDictionary.com". For additional discussion of philosophers, the issues they discuss, and the terms they use, consult other philosophy sites, especially "Andrew Chrucky's Meta-Encyclopedia of Philosophy" and "Harmut Krech's Bio-Bibliographical Directory".

The Skeptic's Dictionary

What is The Skeptic's Dictionary?
The Skeptic's Dictionary is a website and a book. Each features definitions, arguments, and essays on occult topics ranging from acupuncture to zombies, and provides a lively, commonsense trove of detailed information on things supernatural, paranormal, and pseudoscientific.

Dozens of topics in logic, perception, science, and philosophy are also covered to help explain the appeal and popularity of occult beliefs and to provide a guide for critical thinking. » More about the SD & Reader comments on the SD

The Web site was created in 1994 - thanks to the Davis Community Network - and is still evolving. The book was published in 2003 by John Wiley & Sons, thanks in large part to literary agent Ted Weinstein and former Wiley editor Jeff Golick.

About the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy

Brief Description

Welcome to the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (SEP). From its inception, the SEP was designed so that each entry is maintained and kept up to date by an expert or group of experts in the field. All entries and substantive updates are refereed by the members of a distinguished Editorial Board before they are made public. Consequently, our dynamic reference work maintains academic standards while evolving and adapting in response to new research. You can cite fixed editions that are created on a quarterly basis and stored in our Archives (every entry contains a link to its complete archival history, identifying the fixed edition the reader should cite). The Table of Contents lists entries that are published or assigned. The Projected Table of Contents also lists entries which are currently unassigned but nevertheless projected.
