Debate HeadsOur friends at The Institute of Art and Ideas have posted a new video debate on ethics. The debate features award-winning novelist Joanna Kavenna, philosopher and Closure theorist Hilary Lawson, and UCL neuroscientist Parashkev Nachev and they debate the limits of integrity in a modern world. Here’s the description of the debate from their website:
