Our issue on Public Political Philosophy is out in the world! tinyurl.com/PublicPolPhilo

We asked about the gap between political philosophy and everyday politics: why it’s there, how to close it, whether we ought to. The answers were engaging, rigorous, exciting, often surprising. Do take a look!

Yay for physical copies of the book (one day late for the first book talk, but never mind)! The thing is open access (as per funky open padlock symbol on the front cover doi.org/10.4324/9781...), so can't imagine too many of these will find their way into the offline realm
