A series of lectures delivered by Peter Millican to first-year philosophy students at the University of Oxford. The lectures comprise the 8-week General Philosophy course and were delivered in late 2009.
A most interesting presentation by a skilled instructor who makes good use of visuals to illustrate the philosophy of Hobbes. I just wish I could have seen the backdrop of visuals as he lectured. Great stuff. Thank you.
The foundation of: Locke, Hobbes and Jefferson’s work crystallizes by using science to prove our unalienable Rights are from the Laws of Nature. It becomes clear these Rights apply to all Life, from bacteria to humans, and Social systems, including Charles Darwin’s research; as in a Grand Unification principle for all Living-systems (see my channel video). The Laws of Nature trumps mortals in power; a new understanding of these Rights may help make this world a better place to live.
@MrAnthonyVance You can get the slides off of oxford's website. Search for Peter Millican on their website and you'll find them.
