On the whole, the vast majority of the articles in both volumes [Volume 5 and 6] deserve careful studying by researchers working in meta-ethics and more generally interested in the nature of normativity
Francesco Orsi, Philosophy in Review XXXIII,
Oxford Studies in Metaethics is the only publication devoted exclusively to original philosophical work in the foundations of ethics. It provides an annual selection of much of the best new scholarship being done in the field. Its broad purview includes work being done at the intersection of ethical theory and metaphysics, epistemology, philosophy of language, and philosophy of mind. The essays included in the series provide an excellent basis for understanding recent developments in the field; those who would like to acquaint themselves with the current state of play in metaethics would do well to start here.
