italian-studies: Scholarly discussions in any field of Italian studies
Hi all,
I'm a Fellow of All Souls College, Oxford, where I recently finished my Ph.D
on the philosophy of perception.
I've just launched a website, www.academia.edu, which does two things:
- It displays academics around the world in a 'tree diagram' format,
showing which university/department they are affiliated with.
- It enables researchers to keep track of the latest developments in their
field - the latest people, papers, and talks.
My hope is that the site will eventually list every academic in the world --
Faculty members, Post-Docs, and Graduate Students.
Academia.edu is getting some traction. Some of the professors on the site
include:
- Richard Dawkins - http://oxford.academia.edu/RichardDawkins
- Stephen Hawking - http://cambridge.academia.edu/StephenHawking
- Paul Krugman - http://princeton.academia.edu/PaulKrugman
- Noam Chomsky - http://mit.academia.edu/NoamChomsky
I'm trying to spread the word about www.academia.edu. If you have a minute,
it would be great if you could visit the site, and add yourself to your
department on the tree. If your department/university is not there, you can
add it/them by clicking on the arrows coming out of the
department/university boxes.
And do spread the word to your friends and colleagues if you can.
Many thanks,
Richard
