Personalist Studies. Editor: Thomas F. Woods

We seek manuscripts that draw on philosophical discipline and transdisciplinary conversation to confront problems confronted by persons in the world--and to do so in language that is comprehensible beyond the boundaries of academic philosophy narrowly defined.
