Janice Moulton received her Ph.D. from the University of Chicago in 1971 and has been in the Philosophy Department at Smith College since 1981. She began The Guidebook for Publishing Philosophy twenty years ago, co-authored the 1986 version with Marcia Yudkin and put that version on the World Wide Web with Rachel Westmoreland (http://www.smith.edu/~jmoulton/guidebook). After writing The Organization of Language (with G. M. Robinson, Cambridge University Press) and Ethical Problems in Higher Education (with G. M. Robinson, Prentice Hall/Simon Schuster), and seeing her philosophy papers reprinted in anthologies that appealed to a wider audience, she wrote Scaling the Dragon (with G. M. Robinson, Cross Cultural Publications) about her adventures in China (page layout and cover designed by the authors) and is now working on adventure novels.
