The International Journal of Philosophical Studies publishes academic articles in all areas of philosophy. In particular it seeks to promote mutual comprehension and dialogue between the 'analytic' and 'continental' styles of philosophy, and combine discussion of contemporary problems with articles in the history of philosophy. It contains an extensive book review section, including reviews of non-English language books. The broad range of IJPS makes it essential reading for professionals in all fields of philosophy, for graduate students and for all those who take an interest in philosophical questions and their historical development.

Throughout, Individuals advances some highly influential and controversial ideas, such as 'non-solipsistic consciousness' and the concept of a person a 'primitive concept'
