Authors, peer reviewers & more for Introduction to Philosophy

The Introduction to Philosophy open textbook series is a set of nine open textbooks for introduction to philosophy courses, focused on topics such as philosophy of mind, ethics, epistemology, and more. One book has been published (Philosophy of Mind), and the Ethics book should be published very soon as well. You can view the complete project description for more information.

We are seeking volunteers for the following roles:

  • Chapter authors for the philosophy of science book (see chapter outline and the Public Table of Contents for the series for the chapters that are still in need of authors. We are looking for people with a PhD in philosophy (or who are in a PhD program) and who, ideally, have teaching experience at the introductory level.

  • Peer reviewers will be needed for the Epistemology book within the next few months. See the original chapter outline and also the Public Table of Contents for the series for the chapters that are being written.

  • Copy editors who could copy edit one or more books.

  • Volunteers to help input the text from google docs into Pressbooks (doesn’t require any technical skills other than a willingness to learn a bit about Pressbooks!).

If you would be willing to help in one of these ways, please let us know on our Volunteer Sign Up thread for the project!
