[Need help finding a therapist for a friend who's wife wants a divorce.]

My friend lives in Salt Lake City, Utah. I'm guessing it might be more difficult to find a good therapist where they are so heavily religious but does anyone have any suggestions? I don't see any resources on here. Thanks.

[Any recommended psychology books for self knowledge?]

Thanks. That's a good list to start with.

I want to able to better understand myself as well as help those close to me do the same.

[If Stephan made his own Philosophy textbook]

I think it would be awesome if Steph had a textbook for teaching children Philosophy. I think it would be a great resource for people homeschooling their kids. 

 

Are you aware of any good Philosophy resources for kids available right now? I'd like to get my hands on those.

Mind, Language and Society by John Searle is a most excellent introductory work. He also does a good job of teaching you about the history of philosophy, as well in his lecture series. He's an academic, but the kind other philosophers hate, because he's not shy about telling other people that their theories are terrible, and he's a funny, likeable guy.

 

But before recommending anything else, there is so much crucial, vitally important material in the podcast stream for this show. There is a lot more current events, commentary type shows in recent years, and sunday shows with gems that aren't always easy to find, but if you go further back, there are a lot of fucking home runs (small taste here). And of course, the triple philosophical punch of On Truth, UPB and RTR are must reads.

 

I tend to assume that people have listened to a comparable number of podcasts as I have, but that's not usually the case and other people are relatively new. Some people only know the shows from the shows from the last two years, but FDR classic has some freakin' awesome stuff in there.

I'll give that a try too. I've been trying to keep up with all the new FDR stuff as well as start listening from episode 1.

Thanks. This looks like some good material to start on.

I was hoping to find a recommended reading list. Oh well.

 

I want to start reading from the old philosophers. Steph recommended beginning with Socrates. Is there a particular book to look for that's good at breaking down all his teachings?

Is this an abandoned project?
