This is a very clear and accessible video. I am amazed by how easy your explanations are. I am definitely not a philosophy/logic enthusiast, but I really enjoyed your videos. Thank you!
YOU made this a lot more digestible than the coursera course on reason and logic which I am trying to get my head around for the second time. Thank you.
I have a question: Regarding the slide on Composition (invalidly inferring the quality of whole from quality of parts), I'm feeling stuck.. So much of my thinking regarding trying to understand medical science as an example, I have been building my understanding from looking at all of the building blocks (symptoms for example) and then building a clinical picture (im a nurse btw), and deducing what is more likely to be the underlying cause by looking at all of the building blocks--Am I misunderstanding this concept? Now that I'm thinking about it im wondering if i have been learning things the wrong way.. If i were to discard the concept of understanding the big picture by recognizing all of the parts (and thus building the big picture from them), what would I be left with? I'm thinking for example, 'what would i do, simply say that i cannot understand anything without understanding everything?' How would I then go about trying to view the world/learn things in a better way? --p.s. sorry for the grammatical genocide there
Thank you for the feedback, and I'm glad you liked it. :)
