The CPRG, Cafe Phil Reading Group, is thriving; meets every two months for discussions guided by reading a specific book or two. If you want to be on that list, let David Mitchell or David Partington know. (Latest subject discussed: Descartes, although it is dubious if he should be announced before the discussion, as one should not put Descartes before discourse).
