Everything about Mind Journal totally explained

Mind is a well-respected British journal, currently published by Oxford University Press on behalf of the Mind Association, which deals with philosophy in the analytic tradition. It was founded by Alexander Bain in 1876 with George Croom Robertson as editor at University College London. With the death of Robertson in 1891, George Stout took over the editorship and began a 'New Series'. The current editor is Professor Thomas Baldwin of the University of York. Although the journal now focuses on analytic philosophy, it began as a journal dedicated to the question of whether psychology could be a legitimate natural science. In the first issue, Robertson wrote:
"Now, if there were a journal that set itself to record all advances in psychology, and gave encouragement to special researches by its readiness to publish them, the uncertainty hanging over the subject could hardly fail to be dispelled. Either psychology would in time pass with general consent into the company of the sciences, or the hollowness of its pretensions would be plainly revealed. Nothing less, in fact, is aimed at in the publication of Mind than to procure a decision of this question as to the scientific standing of psychology." Bertrand Russell's famous essay: On Denoting, was first published in a 1905 issue of Mind. Alan Turing first proposed the Turing test in a 1950 issue of Mind.(External Link)
