  Philosophy Talk

  Philosophy Talk is radio series that celebrates the value of the examined life. Our two philosopher-hosts invite listeners to join them in conversations about a wide variety of issues, ranging from popular culture to our most deeply held beliefs about science, morality, and the human condition

  Philosophy Talk is presented by Ken Taylor and John Perry of Stanford University

  Six programmes

  (1) Ancient Wisdom for Modern Times

  If the Ancients found themselves transported to the modern world, they would have much to learn about science, technology, and human thinking. But is there something the Ancients can still teach us about how to live a good life? What relevance do the virtues - wisdom, courage, prudence, justice, and so on - have for our modern times? Could these ancient values help solve some of the most challenging problems of contemporary life? John and Ken talk old school with Melissa Lane from Princeton University, author of Eco-Republic: What the Ancients Can Teach Us about Ethics, Virtue, and Sustainable Living (Ben Manilla Productions)
