Just finished this, another great recent introduction to logical empiricism, The Vienna Circle by Sahotra Sarkar. Very accessible, but also goes into the technical bits regularly #jesuispositivist #philsci

I brought to Edinburgh a book by Ricardo J. Gómez (1935 - 2024) that I bought six years ago without knowing that it was so good (although UNQ publishes excellent books and translations in #philsci).

A compelling new book has been released on philosophers' migration to the US around WWII (broader than Reisch's monograph, whose author contributes here beside Katzav, Misak, and Neuber, among others) 👌 #PhilSci
