Top 100 British intellectuals

prospect
  24th July 2004  —  Issue 100
To mark the 100th issue of Prospect, we have compiled a list of the top 100 British public intellectuals. In consultation with many of our regular contributors and a wide range of figures across the disciplines and professions, we gathered more than 400 names from science and philoosophy through politics and journalism to arts and culture, and then whittled them down to 100.

Martin Amis
