She holds degrees in Philosophy from Yale, Oxford and Princeton and has taught in the USA, Canada, and Germany. Dr. Wilson teaches and writes in the history of modern philosophy and on early modern science and also works in the areas of ethics and aesthetics with a special interest in the evolution of morality and the science behind visual experience. She’s the author of the book Moral Animals: Ideals and Constraints in Moral Theory.Today, the entire conversation revolves around the major topics covered in Dr. Wilson’s book, Moral Animals. We start with an exploration of the sources of morality, from primatology to science. We then move on to talk about some forms of morality, like moral realism, moral relativism, and Rawls’ veil of ignorance. And we end up with a discussion of some topics like egalitarianism, feminism, meritocracy, and income inequality.Time Links:--Follow Dr. Wilson’s work:Faculty page: https://www.york.ac.uk/philosophy/staff/catherine-wilson/#profileBook Moral Animals: https://tinyurl.com/y9rbtvblFree ebook Metaethics from a First Person Standpoint: https://tinyurl.com/yc7e4oc2--A HUGE THANK YOU TO MY PATRONS: KARIN LIETZCKE, ANN BLANCHETTE, JUNOS, SCIMED, PER HELGE HAAKSTD LARSEN, LAU GUERREIRO, RUI BELEZA, MIGUEL ESTRADA, ANTÓNIO CUNHA, CHANTEL GELINAS, JIM FRANK, JERRY MULLER, FRANCIS FORD, AND HANS FREDRIK SUNDE!I also leave you with the link to a recent montage video I did with the interviews I have released until the end of June 2018:https://youtu.be/efdb18WdZUoAnd check out my playlists on:PSYCHOLOGY: https://tinyurl.com/ybalf8kmPHILOSOPHY: https://tinyurl.com/yb6a7d3pANTHROPOLOGY: https://tinyurl.com/y8b42r7g
