Hello and welcome to Intelligence Squared, where great minds meet.
I'm senior producer Connor Boyle.
It's a double hitter on the podcast.
Today we're joined by two respected minds exploring the worlds of philosophy and science, and occasionally the places where those two worlds meet.
Daniel Dennett is the american philosopher, writer and cognitive scientist with a focus on how the human mind and its worldview has come to be.
Dennett is emeritus professor of philosophy at Tufts University and has written over a dozen books, the latest of which is ive been thinking, which combines some of his expertise in fields such as neuroscience, linguistics, artificial intelligence, computer science, psychology and more.
Joining him in conversation is Richard Dawkins.
Dawkins is of course the influential and at times divisive british biologist, scientist, writer and author.
Hes renowned for his work on how genes play into our evolution and author of best selling books including the Selfish Gene and the God Delusion.
His latest flights of fancy, Defying Gravity by design and evolution, focuses on our feathered friends.
So an exploratory ramble.
Coming up, adventures in philosophy, some might say.
