About the event
Event type: Seminar
In this introductory talk, I suggest that it is very instructive to view Cartesian scepticism as akin to a disease - a kind of pathology of thought. I break down the onset of the disease into four distinct stages and discuss a variety of treatments that might be offered at each stage.
