TOOLS OF THINKING Understanding the World Through Experience and Reason

Here is the art and science of naval gazing. How do we know things? How do we remember what we know? Moreover, how do we make sense of what we know? These are the questions that Hall, an emeritus professor of philosophy, comes to grips with in this two-part series of lectures. Speaking ad lib from notes, he is amiable, informal, humorous, clear, interesting, and--thankfully--never pedantic. While accessible, he is no less authoritative. The presentation is augmented by superb print materials. Y.R © AudioFile 2006, Portland, Maine [Published: APR/ MAY 06]
