Centenary Special Issue
October 2005
This year Mind is celebrating the Centenary of Bertrand Russell's landmark essay 'On Denoting', the most famous paper in analytic philosophy of the first half twentieth century, in which Russell presented his Theory of Descriptions, a theory still very much debated and used in philosophy today.
To commemorate this seminal paper, Mind is releasing a special centenary issue devoted to the essay. The October 2005 Centenary Issue will be edited by a guest editor, Professor Stephen Neale, Rutgers University, New Jersey, USA.
