Logic

Melvyn Bragg tackles the philosophy of logic - first mapped out by Aristotle in the 4th century BC; disregarded by Descartes in the 17th century and revived and reworked by Gottlob Frege in the 19th century; logic is at the heart of computer science and is a mathematical as well as a philosophical discipline. Melvyn is joined by A.C. Grayling, Professor of Philosophy at Birkbeck, University of London; Peter Millican, Gilbert Ryle Fellow in Philosophy at Hertford College at the University of Oxford; and Rosanna Keefe, Senior Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of Sheffield.

You're welcome. I can't imagine why it would take so long to get a reply on a gripping video like this.

Thanks for the upload. Any idea as of how or where I could find the 2012 In Our Time podcasts?

A lot of historical name dropping? What kind of fatuous comment is that? They're talking about the history of logic, what are they supposed to do?
