SUMMARY:Philosophy Study Group
DESCRIPTION:We are going to discuss Plato’s dialogue Phaedrus for this meeting. If you don’t already have a copy of this dialogue\, it is readily available online. Project Gutenburg (http://www.gutenberg.org/ebooks/1636) has it in several different ebook-type formats\, but if you prefer plain text or PDF\, you can go to http://classics.mit.edu/Plato/phaedrus.html. \nThere are also summaries and outlines available\, such as https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phaedrus_(dialogue) andhttp://www.csun.edu/~hcfll004/Phaedrus-outline.html. Commentaries on the dialogue are so numerous that you have probably been deleting them from your inbox. If you don’t have time to read the entire dialogue\, reading a summary is acceptable. Feeling guilty about doing so is also acceptable.

SUMMARY:Philosophy Study Group (session 2)
DESCRIPTION:We are turning to the topic of philosophy of science with an examination of a book considered a classic in this field: The Logic of Scientific Discovery by Karl Popper. First published in Germany in 1934\, Popper rewrote it for the English edition in 1959. He later added chapters on quantum mechanics and corroboration as well as more appendices. We will cover Part I for this meeting. The price of this book new is all over the place\, but it is generally available in paperback for around $17. As an ebook\, it is for sale in epub format on Google books for $16\, but is $26 for Kindle (or rent it for $8 for a month). It can be found for less – but not a lot – as a used book. Note\, however\, that not all editions contain the extra material. The best deal\, easily\, is on archive.org: free. Another great deal: We don’t charge anything to come to our meetings\, unless you include reading the book…which you will surely do.
