$Description: \\camtasiarelay\minerva\vol8\own8_files\bullet.gif$ Minerva is an electronic journal of philosophy. It is published annually and is available on an open-access basis on the Internet. The journal publishes articles relating to philosophy construed in a broad but scholarly sense, without preference for any particular school or intellectual tradition. Each volume will appear in the month of November. As an electronic journal, Minerva provides swift publication and distribution, while reaction to published articles can be garnered with equal speed. It is intended that the journal will foster debate by publishing considered replies to certain articles and providing a forum for scholarly discourse.

$Description: \\camtasiarelay\minerva\vol8\own8_files\bullet.gif$ It is intended that each volume of Minerva will include articles which have been submitted to the editor over the World Wide Web. Submissions are therefore sought on any topic from professional philosophers and other suitably qualified individuals, and may range from formal scholarly treatises to reviews and discursive or colloquial discussions which would be accessible and intelligible to any literate reader. Submissions are judged exclusively on their philosophical merits. The decision of the editorial board on the acceptability of any submitted article is final, and correspondence will be not be entered into in relation to any submission which is not accepted for publication in the Journal.
