I list all books with at least 1,900 citations (which got the original list to twenty). In the case of Sellars’s classic “Empiricism and the Philosophy of Mind,” the book version, published by Harvard in the 1990s, has received well over 2,000 citations, but I also included the many citations to the article version as well. Once again, as in philosophy of language, I treated Wittgenstein as part of the Anglophone literature. Please email me about errors or omissions.
