The Giants of Philosophy audio CDs explain the views of the most influential philosophers in history. Assuming no prior knowledge of the listener, each pair of CDs presents the concerns, questions, interests, and overall world view of a great philosopher. Receive an education in philosophy – the easy way – on the following philsophers: Plato, Aristotle, Augustine, Aquinas, Spinoza, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Schopenhauer, Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, Dewey, and Sartre. Special emphasis is placed on making each idea both clear and relevant to modern listeners, providing new insights to help us live better lives.

Audio contains Dr. Pert's public lecture (parts 1 and 2) and her interview (parts 3 and 4).
I highly recommend it to anyone who is interested in neuroscience, psychology, popular science and even spirituality.
