Episode 165 - "Epicurus And His Philosophy" Part 19 - Chapter 9 - The New Physics 01

Welcome to Episode 165 of Lucretius Today. This is a podcast dedicated to the poet Lucretius, who wrote "On The Nature of Things," the only complete presentation of Epicurean philosophy left to us from the ancient world. Each week we walk you through the Epicurean texts, and we discuss how Epicurean philosophy can apply to you today. If you find the Epicurean worldview attractive, we invite you to join us in the study of Epicurus at EpicureanFriends.com, where you will find a discussion thread for each of our podcast episodes and many other topics.

We are now in the process of a series of podcasts intended to provide a general overview of Epicurean philosophy based on the organizational structure employed by Norman DeWitt in his book "Epicurus and His Philosophy."

This week we start Chapter 9, entitled "The New Physics."

Episode 165 of the Lucretius Today Podcase is now available. This week we begin our review of "The New Physics" (Chapter 9 of DeWitt's book).
