New journal ‘Philosophy of Physics’ finally launched!
I thought quite a few readers of In the Dark might be interested that there’s a new open-access journal starting up called Philosophy of Physics. It’s published by LSE Press. See this post for more details.
I am excited to report that the new open-access journal Philosophy of Physics is finally online and ready to receive submissions. The Philosophy of Physics Society, together with LSE Press who will be our publishing house, have launched the new journal today.
Thank you very much to everyone in the Governing Board and the Society who contributed to realizing our key initiative!
Special thanks go to David Wallace for having accepted to act as the journal’s founding Editor-in-Chief. Read his announcement on the LSE Press’s blog here.
Please consider submitting your best work to Philosophy of Physics. In order to do so, you should become a member of the Society. It’s free for students and unwaged people, £10 for postdocs, and £20 for others. Once you are a member, you will find instructions on how to submit a paper inside the members’ area, as explained here.

for those interested in philosophy I would also strongly recommend Jim Peebles’ latest book
The Whole Truth:
A cosmologists reflections on the search for objective reality

This could be a very nice development, I hope they get lots of submissions. I’ve been to a few conferences designed to get physicists and philosophers talking together and they can be very interesting. Sometimes, it can feel to the physicist that the philosophers get very hung up on language, but sometimes the philosophers can bring great clarity to well-known problems. For example, I think Tim Maudlin’s recent article on the 2022 Nobel prize is very good
