Summary: what better way is there to learn and drive
Comment: The way I look at these tapes as the best way of reading philosophy while you are driving. Please keep your eyes on the road while you are driving. These series are great. I believe they are not intended to be comprehensive and they could not be in two hours but they give you %60 biography %40 philosophy. Some of them even have accent as they though they were immigrants from original contries to US, Kant speakes with German/English accent. It is fun, entertaining, illuminating. Much better than talk shows. Please this is not a substitute for a real book so judge accordingly.

Summary: Great introduction to Hume
Comment: This brief introduction to Hume is exceptional. I went from this tape to Hume's "An Enquiry Concerning Human Understanding" and "An Enquiry Concerning the Principles of Morals". I don't think it would have been such an easy transition without learning how Hume fits into Western philosophical history and what problems concerned him. It startled me to discover that Hume's major point is that inductive thinking (thinking about "matters of fact" ) is irrational: forming general laws about the world has its basis in custom and experience and not by the sort of reasoning used in math and logic ("relations of ideas" in Hume's lexicon).
Hume's political, historical, and ethical ideas are also interesting and I was surprised to learn how much Hume's ideas on the separation of powers in government had influenced James Madison.

Summary: Brilliant!
Comment: Charlton Heston does it again.Another project that I have absolutely fallen in love with.He sounds so smart and sexy,just like those philosophers were,therefore an appropriate choice to narrate.I wonder,if they were alive today,what would these philosophers have to say about guns?Ah,no matter,they'd all agree with me that Mr.Heston did an excellent job on what i'm sure will be a quintessential work on the subject.
