John Gray's NY Review articles are great.
Reading him, it's interesting how often "new ideas" are actually old ideas that have been forgotten and are now being recycled.
- specialist 6y agoYa. I started chewing thru History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps podcast last year. It's been great. Learning that many of our current debates are millennia old helped me calm down. Regrettably, since I skipped college, my awareness of the classics and liberal arts is very deficient. Now I firmly believe K-12 curriculum should include (age appropriate) ethics, civics, classics, logics, epistemology, etc. In response to "fake news", some progressives are advocating "media literacy". That's not nearly ambitious enough.
