Religious Studies at Chico State Alumni

Another recommended podcast--it's terrific!

Home | History of Philosophy without any gaps Podcast by Peter Adamson, Professor of Philosophy at LMU Munich and KCL London. Includes western, Islamic, Indian, and Africana philsosophy.

I *highly* recommend this series by cognitive behavioralist John Vervaeke from the University of Toronto. It makes the case for the significance of the history of religion, together with the history of philosophy, for understanding our current common psychological predicament.
