I received my author copies today. Thank you @broadviewpress.bsky.social 🤗

The book on Evil and Suffering that Corey Dyck, Fabio Malfara and myself have edited is finally out!

Such a 1970s painting. John Geoffrey Caruthers Little (Canadian, 1928 - 2024). Les sacs à ordures, Rue Bagot, Quebec (1975, oil on canvas).

👍 #oilpainting #sketchbook

This is truly a great book. It will help you see how questions about suffering, pain and evil have been front and centre to philosophy for a long time!

The media should cover sport the way they cover the state murder of civilians: ‘Jannik Sinner appeared to win the French Open yesterday after what supporters say was a comeback from being two sets down.’

This book is almost out! I am looking forward to having it in my hands! It was great to work with Corey and Fabio on this. 😊

If you are interested in boredom studies, pessimism, metaphysics and a bit of Fermi Paradox theorizing, then my chapter on Mainländer and boredom might interest you. The Book "The History and Philosophy of Boredom" (eds, Elpidorou and Ros Velasco, Routledge) is out! philpapers.org/archive/MOYB...

Almost here! The book "The History and Philosophy of Boredom" (Routledge), edited by Andreas Elpidorou and Josefa Ros Velasco will be available on June 4. My chapter on Philipp Mainländer is, dare I say, interesting. 🤗
