Here's something interesting. Several months ago, I made a list of various literary agents who seemed philosophically minded -- yet weren't requesting philosophy. Looking now at their details, freshly published, several are specifically requesting philosophy. OBSERVATION: I think it reflects the enormous surge of interest in philosophy today, which in turn reflects the times. It is said that philosophy thrives in uncertain times -- and this is why it thrived in ancient Greece. There are statistics everywhere which show the surge. As one example, philosophy has overtaken physics, engineering, and information science as a major at US universities.
