Open Access Books Network on Humanities Commons 4 years agoHi John, Hi Lucy,
Many thanks to you both! The archiving approach described by Lucy and Sebastian sounds to be a good way forward (and I’ll drop Ellen a quick email as I’d be keen to hear her perspective too – thanks).

José Angel GARCÍA LANDA deposited Viendo el mundo con la mente in the group
Philosophy on Humanities Commons 4 years agoSpanish abstract: El inmaterialismo del siglo XVIII nos enseñó que el mundo que habitamos no es de naturaleza física sino básicamente informacional o semiótica.
