Episode 19: Narrative, metaphor and explanation in science (and elsewhere)Update: 2018-09-22
Description
We're back with episode 19 after a fairly long break. In this episode we discuss narrative, metaphor and explanation in science and the world-at-large. Is narrative the only form explanations can take? Is this because of our contingent human nature, or does it reveal some deep fact about the world? Are there any deep facts about the world? What is this "world" anyway? As usual, the conversation traverses a twisted path (many branches of which were explored in alternate universes, but not this one). Having the conversation was interesting, so we hope listening to it will be too!
