Huge “papers blog”:http://opp.weatherson.org/archives/004150.html today with the feature being six chapters of Peter Unger’s monumental new book, “All the Power in the World”:http://www.nyu.edu/gsas/dept/philo/faculty/unger/power/, forthcoming this year with OUP. Peter’s book has been many years in the making, and covers many of the most important issues at the foundations of metaphysics and philosophy of mind. Well worth a look.

In other news, I read on “Jennifer Lackey’s website”:http://www.niu.edu/phil/~lackey/research.shtml that her paper _Learning from Words_ won the “Young Epistemologist Prize”:http://philosophy.rutgers.edu/EVENTS/EPIS2005/prize.html this year. Well done Jennifer! The “Rutgers Epistemology Conference”:http://philosophy.rutgers.edu/EVENTS/EPIS2005/ this year has a very strong lineup, to which I’m sure Jennifer’s paper will be an excellent addition. (The papers aren’t posted yet, but they apparently will be shortly.)
