First Issue of Philosophy of Physics Published
The inaugural issue of the journal Philosophy of Physics (PoP) has been published.
The open access journal, announced last year, is published by LSE Press on behalf of the Philosophy of Physics Society. According its website, PoP “aims to be a flagship journal for the field and to span the various different axes of philosophy of physics: metaphysical, historical, mathematical, practice-oriented (and more). It is intended for all researchers in philosophy of physics and for interested readers in cognate disciplines, including outside philosophy.” It’s editor in chief is David Wallace (Pittsburgh).
The inaugural issue, published today, includes articles by Emily Adlam and Carlo Rovelli, Samuel C. Fletcher and James Owen Weatherall, Álvaro Mozota Frauca, Klaas Landsman, Wayne C. Myrvold and John D. Norton, Laura Ruetsche, and Ward Struyve. You can read it here.
Congrats, David et al.!
Let me take the opportunity to publicly thank the philosophy of physics community, whose support has been amazing. More than 90% of people we asked to referee agreed.

Looking forward to a long publishing run!
A giant leap for phelosophy
Just perused the last two pieces, which essentially and collectively puts our present understanding of the relationship between Einstein’s special relativity and general relativity up in the air, pointing out several theoretical/explanatory gaps between them both in the foundations of geometry and dynamics as we presently understand them. Impressive to say the least!
This is a BEAUTIFUL logo.
Yah, these questions evoke my curiositÿ, which is the main drive to learn a new thinking pattern. If I am lucky enough, I might get some new knowledge out of it.😊
It’s a pity I have published yet my book of Physics some days ago and I am a philosopher of Science but Congratulations.
Hopefully, this will clear up confusions cluttering up this area.
So…meta-physics, one might say.
