Susan Stebbing (1885–1943) played a central role in the development of the analytic tradition in the 1930s, publishing the first textbook of analytic philosophy in 1930. She was also responsible for introducing logical empiricism into Britain. In two papers written in the early 1930s, she critically compared logical empiricism with Cambridge philosophy, thereby bringing into dialogue the two main schools of philosophy that came to form the analytic tradition. In this paper I offer an account of Stebbing's work and her place in the history of analytic philosophy.
