Thought Wins PROSE Award for Best New Journal in the Humanities and Social Sciences

The journal Thought, which was founded a few years ago by Crispin Wright, and for which I am the Associate Editor for Philosophy of Language and Philosophy of Mathematics, has been recognized as the Best New Journal in the Humanities and Social Sciences at the PROSE Awards.

I had not previously heard of these awards, but apparently they are the American Publishers Awards for Professional and Scholarly Excellence. They describe themselves this way:

The PROSE Awards annually recognize the very best in professional and scholarly publishing by bringing attention to distinguished books, journals, and electronic content in over 40 categories. Judged by peer publishers, librarians, and medical professionals since 1976, the PROSE Awards are extraordinary for their breadth and depth.

This is a wonderful recognition for what has quickly become, IMHO, an excellent journal. Congratulations are due especially to Crispin and to the other to editors: Carrie Jenkins and John Divers.

For those who have not previously heard of Thought, we specialize in publishing shorter pieces (under 4000 words), kind of like Analysis. We try our best to have a fast turn-around time, though it doesn't always work out that way.
