This is an extremely thorough course, covering world philosophies about well, the dark side of human nature, and every time I thought: hold on go back I need a definition or something, he would go back. I think this course could be more successful if not so much was tackled in it, and he was a little more passionate about his feelings on certain subjects, but also, it’s for a much broader audience than any of my SJLA philosophy courses. For that reason, it’s definitely a course I recommend listening to, Breyer makes the subject matter interesting and accessible, but I found myself wanting to go in a different direction with some of the subjects and wanting to ask questions that would be a little in the weeds for an audio-lecture series even if I could still be in SJLA (honestly, it’s very sad). Also, the lecture on anger was lacking and instead I suggest reading Rebecca DeYoung’s glittering vices.
