- DanielBMarkham 18y agoThere are two. The first is an older series - can't seem to remember it off-hand. I'll repost when I get home this weekend. The one I use all the time is the Teaching Company http://www.teach12.com http://www.teach12.com I bet I've gone through at least 15 of their courses so far. Maybe more. Great stuff -- in all kinds of topics. Right now I'm listening to a 36-hour philosophy of science course for my morning workouts and a 18-hour history of the reformation in Europe course for when I'm on airplanes. I did their "Great Minds of the Western Intellectual Tradition, 3rd Edition" last summer and had a blast. http://www.teach12.com/ttcx/coursedesclong2.aspx?cid=470&pc=Philosophy%20and%20Intellectual%20History http://www.teach12.com/ttcx/coursedesclong2.aspx?cid=470&... But fair warning -- it takes an acquired taste. I found the first set difficult to listen to, since I had gotten so used to history channel/MTV type science. I like the lecture format much better now that I've grown accustomed to it. Also -- I have the history of languages lecture DVDs which is in my to-do list. As you can see, I'm a fan.
- froo 18y agoI never realised that stuff like this was available, thanks for the link. I have just ordered some stuff to give it a try while I'm on my exercise bike in the mornings.
