Deeply sad at the passing on Friday of dear & inspiring friend Susan Craighead, a brilliant student, incl @Princeton & as a @rhodes_trust Scholar @MertonCollege @politics_oxford@UniofOxford, who led a life of service to others, esp thru the law, despite debilitating illness. RIP

This week Pushkin Press is publishing a revised, updated edition of my biography of Isaiah Berlin.
"In a dark century, he showed what a life of the mind should be: sceptical, ironical, dispassionate and free."
A fascinating obituary of Bill Newton-Smith, one of the @BalliolOxford philosophers who interviewed me in 1975 when it turns out he had only been a don for a year. He opened up university opportunities in Eastern Europe & most recently in Wales. https://t.co/N4A4HUBBzT
Happy to report that we have won the Dafoe Prize for best book about Canada. The jury says “ “Valley of the Birdtail is the most clear-eyed and compassionate book on the legacy of Indigenous inequality I’ve read. It’s maddening in parts, wryly funny in other parts”
We are very saddened to learn that our Honorary Fellow Professor Robert O'Neill (PPE, 1961) passed away on April 19, 2023, in Katoomba, New South Wales. We offer sincere condolences to his family and friends on behalf of the Brasenose community.
We are proud to publish Peter Edwards' lovely obituary of Bob O'Neill, the eminent Australian strategist and former Board member of the @LowyInstitute: https://t.co/6Dud7g1jRW

Congratulations Bob and Gayle Cowan, who were awarded the Order of Australia Medal (OAM). From 1995-2019 they provided approx. $1 million to St Mark’s students, many of whom wouldn't have been able to attend university or St Mark's without their support. https://t.co/mSB8R74y3c
