The American philosophical Association (APA) was founded in 1900 to
promote the exchange of ideas among philosophers and to facilitate
the professional work and teaching of philosophers. Having grown
from a few hundred members to over 10,000, the APA is one of the
largest philosophical societies in the world and the only American
philosophical society not devoted to a particular school or
philosophical approach. In 1999, in anticipation of its centennial,
the APA authorized philosopher Richard T. Hull to begin collecting
and publishing the presidential addresses delivered over the course
of the twentieth century. The first five volumes, covering the
years 1901 to 1950, have now been published and are available
exclusively from Prometheus Books. Besides the presidential
addresses, each volume contains biographies and photographs of the
APA presidents, a list of their birthplaces, a chronology of the
APA, a list of presidents per decade, a list of universities and
colleges closely associated with each president, and name and
subject indices. A total of eleven volumes are planned to complete
the collection, the final volume being devoted to historical essays
in 20th-century American philosophy. This unique record of the
development and leadership of American philosophy during its
flowering in the twentieth century will complement the libraries of
both professional philosophers and interested nonprofessionals.
