Description
Summary:This edited volume is dedicated exclusively to the philosophy of Susan Stebbing (1885-1943) - a pivotal female figure in the male-dominated tradition of early analytic philosophy, and Britain's first female professor of philosophy who has, until recently, been unjustly neglected. It collects eleven essays that explore various elements of Stebbing's prolific output: the significance of her work on metaphysical analysis, her contributions to public philosophy, including her work in the philosophy of physics, critical thinking, ethics, and counterpropaganda efforts, as well as her work in philosophical logic and the philosophy of language.
