Reviews

Just can not stop listening !


(5 stars)

Stumbled on this wealth of recorded and informed opinions covering issues in philosophy. In an age of information overload, it is good to let these tapes remind us that philosophy is not dead but merely drowned out by those who know not that they know not.

Every individual has to listen to this


(5 stars)

This reading saves a lot of heartache and time. It is timeless and revolutionary
