Registration open for Cambridge Graduate Conference
I am very much looking forward to giving my paper in Cambridge. The programme looks very promising, and refreshingly specialized. It's a really good idea by Tim and Luca to organise a grad conference that focuses only on philosophy of math and logic. If this is you're field, make sure not to miss the event. Details are below.
Registration is now open for the 1st Cambridge Graduate Conference on the philosophy of Logic and Mathematics. The conference will take place at St. John's College, Cambridge on 19-20 January 2008.
Registration can be performed online, by accessing the following link:

Hello, one of our colleagues, R. Adams went to it and gave us a summary on the conference back, it was really interesting, I then later wanted to search for more info on Isabel Guerra Bobo's talk because it was the only one who related (seems to me) to physics... Philosophy looks to me to far away and hard to cling on it, rather, I am more clined to more "scientific" issues and topics, whilest everyone even pupils can understand...
