The cuto Mele A 1995 Mcginn C 1983 Woodward J 2003 Dummett M 1977 Wallace R 1994 Dowe P 2000 for inclusion is having received at least ten citations. The colors of the nodes Bird A 1998 Lewis D 1997 Lewis D 1986 represent the results of a community-detection algorithm applied to the

Salmon W 1984 co-citation matrix. Communities are identied inductively. Edge width Byrne A 1997 Hitchcock C 2001 Lewis D 1973 indicates relative frequency of co-citation. The key gives an approximate Mcginn C 1982 Sellars W 1963 topical description of each citation community and one of its central items.
