In a recent email, we got this great news on a project Peter (Gaffney) has been working on for some time. The editor at Minnesota Press (the book's publisher), has just forwarded Peter reviews of the manuscript he is putting together on philosophy and science. The reviews are great but as Peter said [he] "didn't want to just sit here at home with my arms raised in the air indefinitely" so he emailed us to share in his good news.
Following are some of the comments from reviewers:
"This book definitely makes a significant and needed contribution to the literature...There is no comparable collection available as a book..."
"Minnesota have done well to have scooped up the best volume on the topic."
"This is an important book for a fairly wide audience of practitioners in philosophy, science studies, cultural theory, and any other academic discipline that deals with the philosophy of contemporary science...there is good reason to anticipate a broad readership in the English-speaking academic community..."
"I am not aware of another anthology that is comparable in focus and scope."
These comments were made by writers in the field (selected as part of the official review process at Minnesota Press) - Peter can't disclose their names, but he says he is "proud to hear it coming from them (one of them is a quantum physicist, the field I keep blabbering on about when I visit you guys)."
Yeah!
