About this episode
In this lecture titled Science and Philosophy, explore the deep divide between idealism's quest for the ultimate explanation of reality and the empirical limits set by science and analytic philosophy. Understand how modern thought, shaped by logical positivism and verificationism, confines itself to observable facts—while idealism seeks the world behind the world.
What you would encounter is a reading, commentary and explanation of texts including but not limited to Yasin Masih's Western Philosophy.
This series follows closely with the UPSC syllabus as prescribed for Philosophy Optional Paper 1 and hence can be of great use to any students trying to develop an understanding for the same.
