True to the tradition of public intellectual engagement, The Philosophical Salon is a place where contemporary thinkers can discuss today’s crucial issues. Edited by Michael Marder, The Philosophical Salon’s mission is to bring together leading intellectuals from across the world in a single forum where their reflections on things that matter to us all can be heard.
