BSPS Open

BSPS Open

BSPS Open is an international book series for monographs in the philosophy of science produced in collaboration by the British Society for the Philosophy of Science and the University of Calgary Press.

We believe that scholarly ideas should be freely accessible to everyone, and that scholars should not have to pay to spread these ideas. That is why BSPS Open has adopted a ground-breaking “Open Access Diamond” model that sets a new standard for equality and access. All BSPS Open books are published under a BY-NC-ND Creative Commons license that allows free publication of the PDF anywhere online, in addition to for-purchase print and digital formats. And, this service is absolutely free to our authors: selections are made only on the basis of scholarly merit, and not the ability to pay Open Access fees.
