The Art of Thinking by Leonard Peikoff -- part 3: Thinking in Essentials

Course playlist:    • The Art of Thinking by Leonard Peikoff  

Thinking in essentials as a form of unit-reduction. How to decide what is essential in a particular case, such as a movie, book or person. Translating commonplace remarks in terms of essentials.

Do you want to improve your method of thinking?

This is a course on what to do with your mind during the act of thought, when to do it and how to do it. Leonard Peikoff teaches you how to make the principles of Objectivist epistemology the guide of your own daily thought processes. These lectures are part new theory and part exercises.

Recorded at Conceptual Conference 1992 in Williamsburg, VA.
