The Middle East has had considerable experience ingesting western cultural influence. The Hellenism of Alexander (fourth century B.C.) slowly metamorphosed into the Byzantinism of Justinian (seventh century A.D.). Two conclusions are suggested. Western cultural seed on eastern soil matures slowly and best in selected locations, and eventually a distinctive new style emerges, accommodating the needs and incorporating the traditions of the Middle East.

The journal of the Philosophy of Science Association, Philosophy of Science, celebrates its fiftieth anniversary this year, and in honor of this has reprinted the Table of Contents from its first issue as well as the lead article, “On the Character of Philosophic Problems” by Rudolf Carnap (1984). Carnap's object in this article is to determine just what philosophical problems in science are. He took this to be a question about what distinguishes the “standpoint” of a philosopher from that of the empirical investigator (1984:6). He begins with the observation that “philosophers have ever declared that their problems lie at a different level from the problems of the empirical sciences . . . the question is, however, where one should seek this level” (1984:5).
