Project MUSE

Hume Studies is now being published electronically as well as in hard copy, through Project MUSE of Johns Hopkins University Press (http://muse.jhu.edu/). Issues from Volume 34, Number 1, April, 2008 on will be made available to subscribers.

New Editors

We would like to extend our warmest welcome and good wishes to our successors as editors of Hume Studies, Corliss Swain of St. Olaf University and Saul Traiger of Occidental College whose term begins with the April 2010 issue. Working along with them will be Karánn Durland of Austin College, as Book Review Editor. James Fieser, of the University of Tennessee, Martin, has compiled the updates of the Hume literature which have appeared (usually) in the November issue of the journal; he will be continuing this valuable work under the new editors.

The outgoing Editors are indebted to many people for the help that they have given us. These include Jacqueline Taylor and Michael Gill, who served successively as Moral Philosophy Editors during the period of our editorship, and who both did exemplary work in contributing to the high level of scholarship and efficient handling of submissions in moral philosophy. We are very grateful as well to Peter Kail and Karánn Durland, who have served successively as Book Review Editors, for their thoughtful selection of books to review, and the high quality and interest of the reviews that they solicited. Thanks also to the many reviewers and referees, both of books and articles, on whom the journal has relied—without the immense time they put in assessing contributions, and often giving generous feedback to authors, there is no way that the journal could operate. We want also to thank our predecessors as Editors, Elizabeth Radcliffe and Kenneth Winkler, for all of the [End Page 2] valuable assistance they gave us at the early stages of our work; an additional note of thanks goes to Elizabeth for her exceptionally thoughtful, and helpful, input at the terminal and transitional stages of our work. We would like to extend our appreciation to her and the other members of the Executive Committee of the Hume Society, and to the members of the Editorial Board of Hume Studies, for their contributions to the running of the journal. We would also like to acknowledge the valuable work of Saul Traiger in maintaining the Hume Studies archives so skillfully, and his primary role in steering the journal to its participation in Project MUSE, our electronic articulation. We thank also Rick McCarty for his unstinting ongoing support in setting up, helping us maintain, and passing along to the new Editors, our central database. In addition, we extend our thanks and appreciation to the team at the Philosophy Documentation Center with whom we have worked, and who have so ably assisted in the production of the journal, especially Marty Klaif and Pamela Swope. We also thank the team at Malloy, who have been the printers of the successive issues of the journal, and especially Lynn Rohkohl. We have had the good fortune of the services of Corina David, as our copy-editor; much appreciation is extended to her for the quality and professionalism of her work. Finally, we want to affirm a superlative note of thanks, and gratitude, to Cherilyn Keall, who has served as editorial assistant for the journal over the course of the past five years, and whose exemplary helpfulness, professionalism, and skill in this role have been beyond praise.
