HIST-ANALYTIC
Under construction; some links unliving

Welcome to the hist-analytic web site! Although still in its early stages the creation of this site is an attempt at bringing together resources useful to historians of analytical philosophy. Some of these files are long and difficult to read online. If you have difficulty viewing the file, you very often download the page for offline viewing by going to File and then Save. If you experience difficulty, try reloading, then wait a bit. If this fails reopen the browser and try again. If this fails contact me (baynesrb@yahoo.com) and I'll try to email you the document as an attachment. But it may take a bit of time, depending on demand. I am working on a shoestring budget; the pdf quality is not high. I hope to remedy this. Let us begin with a statement of the purpose of hist-analytic.
