Description: 'Dare to know' was the radical rallying cry of the Enlightenment. But since then, philosophers from Nietzsche to Derrida have argued there are limits to knowledge so profound that truth is an impossible goal. Is the enlightenment dream over? Or can we forge a New Enlightenment that abandons ultimate truth but provides us with directions just as radical and exciting as the original? A Short History of Truth author, Julian Baggini, post-realist philosopher Hilary Lawson and metaphysician Amie Thomasson. In association with the New College of the Humanities. www.nchlondon.ac.uk
