So with over 1100 votes in our poll from the other day, here are the results:
Readers: what is your main academic field?

Unsurprisingly, philosophy was the primary academic field of readers (with over 700 votes, accounting for not quite two-thirds of the responses). 5% come from law (59 votes), while 14% are neither faculty nor students (135 votes). 3% (33 votes) study or teach English, Comparative Literature or foreign languages & literatures, while 2% (28) come from Political Science or Public Policy. The 1% in many other fields conceals differentials in vote totals, ranging from 17 votes in each of History, Medicine, and Psychology/Cognitive Science, to just 6 in Computer Science. I'm pleased that the blog is of interest to a significant number from other academic disciplines, as well as to those outside the academy.
Thanks to all for reading!
