Examined Life: An Introduction to Philosophy
"How Does Science Add to Knowledge"
We live in a world transformed by modern science; we look to science to cure diseases, fill the future with mind-boggling inventions, and keep us from destroying the planet. What are these hopes based on? Sir Francis Bacon said we must go out and observe the world and that would teach us everything that we need to know about material life. Bacon urged scientists to use a method, which he called induction to make a number of observations, look for general patterns, test those patterns, and finally grasp the underlying laws of nature. D

Examined Life: An Introduction to Philosophy
"Does Science Give Us Truth"
Atoms are too small to see and they exist only in theory, yet we think that all matter is made up of atoMs. How can we be sure that is true? What does it mean to say anything is true? This program looks at several theories of truth: the correspondence theory of truth which says a statement is true because there is something in the world that makes it true, the coherence theory of truth which says truth consists of how our various ideas and beliefs cohere with each other, and pragmatism which is grounded in basic biology and used in Darwin's theories. This program also looks at how conflicts have carried over into realist vs. antirealist views of science and includes the Einstein-Bohr debate about quantum mechanics. D

From that classic formula things can, of course, get more inventive and Rick shares with us one of the more unusual, though still classically grounded enchiladas on Chef Ricardo Munoz-Zurita's menu: an enchilada of jamaica, or dried hibiscus flowers that tastes like a cross between pickled beets and cabbage.
