Summary: Episode 1 | Descartes, Technology and Minds | 21'30’’ Descartes is often depicted as the philosopher who built his system by restarting everything from scratch, after having sceptically dumped all formerly accepted opinions. Prof. Hanoch Ben-Yami challenges this view. He is professor at the Central European University, Budapest, Hungary, and an expert in various areas of theoretical philosophy, the history of modern philosophy, logic and philosophy of language. In his book Logic and Natural Language (2004), Prof. Ben-Yami challenged Frege’s system of logic. He is currently in the process of writing a book on Descartes.
