Thanks to being spearheaded by two Oxbridge-educated academic philosophers, Lex Academic is uniquely positioned to offer rigorous philosophy proofreading, copy-editing, indexing, and translation. We have guided academic philosophers through every stage of the publishing process, from PhD theses and academic book proposals to papers now published in top-tier journals, including Mind and the Journal of Philosophy. Our clients have landed book contracts with the likes of Cambridge University Press, and some have won impressive grants with the European Research Council, British Academy, and Templeton Foundation. We understand the nature of academic competition and have decades of experience (both professional/philosophical and editorial/technical) to steer academic philosophers towards publication and career success. Our service is discreet and all work is anonymised before being assigned to a specialist.
With a global team of over 100 rigorously tested philosophy editors, Lex Academic are the only author services company who will assign your philosophy manuscript to the perfect sub-specialist who understands the relevant literature, debates, and terminology. Whether you are working on Kant, metaphysics, experimental philosophy, moral philosophy, the history of ideas, or the latest cutting-edge article in the philosophy of film, your work will be in the hands of experts. With editors well-versed in Latin, ancient Greek, French, German, Italian, as well as formal logic, we guarantee that your work will be copy-edited by the appropriate expert. All our editorial work is finalised in-house by PhD-educated professional copy editors who will ensure your work is immaculately formatted for your target publication. Our powerful conjunction of academic research expertise and the most exacting linguistic standards constitutes a proven formula in getting your work accepted for publication the first time around.
Lex Academic is officially recommended by journals such as Utilitas and the Journal of Applied Philosophy. We are also the proud sponsors of Philosophical Psychology’s Lex Academic Essay Prize on Understanding Bias, the Lex Academic Prize in Philosophy of Action and Ethics (awarded jointly with the Italian Society of Analytic Philosophy (SIFA) and Argumenta), and the website of the British Wittgenstein Society.
