Philosophy For Our Times

Metaphysics and science: do we need both? PART 1 | Eric Weinstein, Becky Parker, Hilary Lawson


Listen Later

The matrix, myths, and metaphysics Part 1

Is metaphysics still relevant? Or has the pre-eminence of science over the last centuries made such questioning obsolete?

Join provocative mathematician and investor Eric Weinstein, award-winning physicist Becky Parker and post-post-realist philosopher Hilary Lawson as they discuss what role, if any, metaphysics should currently be playing in our society. Their discussions touch on issues such as the openness or not of science, as well as the underlying truth of reality.
