*Call for Papers*

PDF Version http://www.phil.upenn.edu/~weisberg/cfp.pdf

Submissions are now invited for ISPC 09 on any topic in philosophy of chemistry. The organizers interpret the field broadly, and welcome papers from philosophers, scientists, historians, and educators. However, the paper should deal with a conceptual issue in chemical theory or practice, whether of historical or contemporary interest.


Please submit a short (50-100 words) and an extended (500-1000 words) abstract to Michael Weisberg (weisberg@phil.upenn.edu) by no later than March 2, 2009. Decisions will be made by the end of March, at which time online registration will be opened and lodging options will be made available.
