Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews (NDPR) (ISSN 1538-1617) is an online-only peer-reviewed publication of the University of Notre Dame that contains book reviews of books in topics related to philosophy.[1]

History

NDPR launched in January 2002.[1]

Editorial board

The co-editors-in-chief are Gary Gutting and Anastasia Friel Gutting.[1] As of November 2013, the editorial board included a number of eminent philosophers such as Robert Audi, David Chalmers, Brian Leiter, and Paul Moser.[2]

Goals and format

The reviews are typically 1,500 to 2,500 words in length. The website states that its goal is to publish a book review of any major scholarly philosophical book within six to twelve months of the book's publication. Reviews are commissioned and vetted by the Editorial Board. Only newly released books and anthologies are reviewed, not reprints or new editions unless they contain substantial new material.[1]

Accessibility

NDPR is published electronically (online) only. In addition to browsing the website for free, people can also subscribe for free via email or RSS. Any material appearing in NDPR may be copied for educational use provided proper credit is given to the author and NDPR.[1]

Reception

NDPR appears in many lists of online resources and journals related to philosophy.[3][4][5][6][7]

In 2007, philosopher Brian Leiter (who was and still is on the editorial board of NDPR) wrote on his blog, Leiter Reports: "I want to start by saying that Notre Dame Philosophical Reviews is a wonderful resource, for which the whole profession is indebted to Gary Gutting who runs it so well." He then went on to criticize one of the reviews that appeared on the site.[8] In 2012, the blog Philosophers Anonymous criticized NDPR for publishing low-quality reviews.[9]

Philosophy bloggers often link to and discuss NDPR reviews in their blog posts.[10][11][12][13]
