1 小时 37 分钟Hello folks and welcome to the Lunar Society podcast.
Today it is my great privilege to talk with Professor Michael Hummer.
He is in my opinion the best philosopher alive.
He's a professor of philosophy at the University of Colorado and he has written more than 70 academic articles on epistemology,
ethics, metaethics, metaphysics, and political philosophy.
He has also written eight books,
the newest one of which is this introduction to philosophy, knowledge, reality, and value.
I highly highly recommend it.
It's incredibly clear and easy to read and covers all of the arguments and philosophy that I have been curious about
since I was a teenager.
So I've included a link to his Amazon page in the description where you can go and buy it.
Today, we had an incredibly wide-ranging conversation about a previous book of his,
The Problem of Political Authority.
Just a reminder, as always, to please,
please share this podcast on social media or with your friends if you enjoyed.
This is a small and growing podcast, so word of mouth really, really helps.
Without further ado, here's Professor Michael Hummer.
Okay, Professor Hummer, what is the problem of political authority?
What did you write this book?
Yeah, so, you know, here's a copy of the book.
