Announcing a unique opportunity for joining the philosophical dialogue between East and West: A Research Group on women philosophers is being formed to promote Field-Being and non-substantialist thought. Field-Being is a philosophy which views the world as an “incessant process of activity forming a dynamic continuum.” Exploring women's thinking in such areas as Buddhism, Confucianism, Existentialism, American Transcendentalism, Process or Post-Modernist philosophy—possible subjects for papers and discussion are philosophy with non-substantialist leanings throughout the history of philosophy and culture. Activities include roundtables, panel sessions at the annual International Institute for Field-Being symposium or workshops at the IIFB group meetings at the APA and A AR and other academic conferences. To learn more about the IIFB please contact Therese Dykeman, Fairfield University, Fairfield, CT, 06430-5195 or e-mail You may also visit our web site at http://www.iifb.org, and our newly published online journal at http://www.iifb.org/ijfb.
