The special topic for this 85th volume of the International Journal for Analytic Philosophy is the critique of Immanuel Kant's logic and epistemology by the philosopher Bernhard Bolzano (1781-1848), with five long essays on that subject occupying nearly half of the volume. Remaining non-thematic essays address such topics as socially constituted actions and objects, Brewer's switching argument, patriotism and the philosophy of emotions, the value of feelings for decision-making, and Burge's theory of perception. Three critical reviews of recent philosophical books--Die Philosophische Logic Gottlob Freges. Ein Kommentar by Knne, Reburial of Nonexistents: Reconsidering the Meinong-Russell Debate by Swanson, and Subjective Consciousness: A Self-Representational Theory by Kriegel--are also included.
