Did I mention that our new issue is out? The theme is Plato, finally.

I'm relatively new myself. So, is it just Plato you've ignored all these years, or is it rare in general to focus on a specific person?

No, we've published a few issues down the years which focused on one specific philosopher. We've had issues on: J.S.Mill, Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, Nietzsche, Wittgenstein, Kant and Hume.

We've even had issues on Freud and Darwin, and they weren't even philosophers, strictly speaking!

Cool. If arm-twisting is effective, I'd suggest considering Popper or Kuhn.
