Thanks, Oxford, for these posts. I live in the States and enjoy listening.

Your insights add a unique dimension to what I've been exploring in my videos. Exciting to be part of such an insightful community.

Peter Millican is a fantastic communicator! Thanks for the ideas

Thank you here is a contribution that should not be unnoticed by numbers.

Hi @jim keogh, click the link in the description, then check under the 'documents' tab.

Thanks Oxford I have used snippets of these in some of the classes I teach especially his excellent treatment of David Hume.

Excellent professor, Thank you.

Hi @Samm Darden, if you search for 'Peter Millican' you'll find some links to reading lists on his personal site.

Probably the first online course I will finish among many.

Thanks for the playlist

Thanks for this folks!

Got them. thank you , great course by the way..

Very helpful - thank you

an introductory lecture, good so far

I can't believe nobody laughed at the 'you don't have to be an antiquarian in order to get value from this discussion' line. Especially since the delivery was so genuine, almost George Carlin-esq. I thought it was funny Peter!!!!

thank you

Am I the only one who think he looks like Walter from fringe?

I enjoy philosophy very much however I can't see how a philosophy degree would help me after university.

I think a degree in philosophy could act as a "tripod for your camera", being supportive, as it is universally expandable and can be applied to a lot of things.

Philosophy grads actually do really well...and the reasoning and thinking methods that are learned in philosophy courses are really valuable. By the mid career period (10+ years in) Phil grads have higher average salaries than most STEM grads...

Excuse me ,I can't find the slides.Can you help me?

Hi +George Adams - click the link in the description to the list of downloads, and find the slides named for this lecture. You should be able to get them straight from that site.

What a nice bloke - liked the way he wasn't negative to the latecomers - instead was very logical and positive - hmmm is that a philosophical joke ... :-)

Half the students seem to leaving his lecture after first two mins ??!!

That statement is absurd... In response to a reply that is not showing up here anymore: Believing something to be true or factual when the majority viewpoint considers it be fiction is but a matter of opinion if both sides are unsupported by empirical evidence. If one side has supporting empirical evidence then the most that can be said is that the opposition is in error... not that they are stupid. My original statement stands. The difference between stupidity and genius is vast not slight as the first comment proposed. In fact, stupidity as a concept is a negation, indicating a lack of intelligence and is a radical difference in kind, not even a difference in degree. Otherwise, there would not be a real demarcation between the imbecilic or idiotic person and the genius. Lets us wait for the many idiots of the world to come up with a solution to any of the more advanced mathematical problems that have already been solved... then you might convince me that my position was erroneous.
