	Francis Bacon [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy]
		Evidently Bacon believed that in order for a genuine advancement of learning to occur, the prestige of philosophy (and particularly natural philosophy) had to be elevated, while that of history and literature (in a word, humanism) needed to be reduced.
		Empirical Philosophy — that is, a philosophical system ultimately based on a single key insight (or on a very narrow base of research), which is then erected into a model or paradigm to explain phenomena of all kinds.
		While no historian of science or philosophy doubts his immense importance both as a proselytizer on behalf of the empirical method and as an advocate of sweeping intellectual reform, opinion varies widely as to the actual social value and moral significance of the ideas that he represented and effectively bequeathed to us.

	Leiter Reports: A Group Blog (Jan. 23-May 31 2006): Philosophy Updates
		Peter Godfrey-Smith (philosophy of biology, philosophy of science, philosophy of mind), who had been half-time at Harvard and half-time at the Australian National University the last couple of years, is now moving full-time to the Department of Philosophy at Harvard University.
		Susan Hurley (philosophy of mind, psychology and cognitive science; political philosophy; philosophy of social science and decision theory) at the University of Warwick has accepted a Chair at the University of Bristol (for 2006), and has, in consequence, turned down the offer from the Australian National University.
		Last fall, Robert Frodeman (environmental ethics and philosophy, philosophy of science policy) moved to North Texas as Associate Professor and Chair of the Department from the Center for Science and Technology Policy at the University of Colorado, Boulder.

	>-- The Garden of Forking Paths --<
		See here at the Leiter Reports for more discussion about Velleman's remarks on Experimental Philosophy, including a response letter from some of the experimental philosophers themselves.
		Over at Left2Right, David Velleman has a post arguing that experimental philosophy will not be a helpful method in trying to understand either the nature of intentional action or the problem of free will.
		I think that Velleman's own philosophical work has been consistently excellent, and I'm a bit surprised that his reaction to experimental philosophy was so negative.
