Corrections

Errata and departures acknowledged after printing

Why this page exists

We hold every card to three things: that its formulation is formally valid, that it is correctly attributed to its author and source, and that it is faithful to what that author argued. A deck of fifty-four cards drawn from many languages and many centuries will not meet that standard perfectly, and a printed card cannot be recalled. So this page records, permanently, every error we have found or been told of after printing, and what we did about it.

Nothing recorded here is removed. A later printing may correct a card; the record of the error stays.

How to report an error

Write to info@athensjerusalem.com. Tell us the card, what you believe is wrong, and, where you can, where the correct reading is to be found. We are especially glad of reports that a formulation is invalid, that an attribution or citation is mistaken, or that a card departs from what its author argued; those are the errors we most want to know about. Reports that an argument is unpersuasive, or that its premises are false, are the ordinary business of philosophy and are not errata.

We reply to every report. If we agree, the correction is recorded below. If we do not, we will say why. Reporters are not named unless they ask to be.

What each record shows

• the card, and the printing in which the error appears;
• what was wrong, in a sentence;
• what the correct reading is, and how the card's page has been changed;
• whether a later printing carries the correction;
• the date the record was made.

The record

No corrections have been recorded. This page is dated from the first printing of the deck; any error found after that date will appear here.
