Happy New Year. In my November post on scientists and the Cambridge Companions, I made a passing reference to the Oxford Handbooks series. As far as I knew then, there is no Oxford Handbook dedicated to a physicist. I have discovered just this evening, however, that an Oxford Handbook of Newton is in development; individual chapters are being posted online as they are finalized.
I would also like to call attention to an unnamed philosophy series from Cambridge University Press, whose volumes are titled Interpreting _____: Critical Essays. Two physicists (Newton and Mach) and one mathematician (Godel) have volumes devoted to them in that series. There are also volumes on other philosophers including specialists in the philosophy of science, including Kuhn and Feyerabend.
