The Teacher and the Researcher
The reading behind this half thought through presentation came from the following books:
Terry Eagleton: Culture and the Death of God
The article Slightly Overweight People Live Longer by Julian Baggini
and the radio programme: Everything We Know is Wrong

Trivium 21c 
Ha! Looks like we delivered a very similar message and, with the exception of the Eagleton book, I’ve been influenced by the same sources: thanks for the Gray recommendation btw.
Can I in return recommend Seeing Through Illusion by Richard L Gregory, Reckoning With Risk by Gerd Gigerenzer and Getting it Wrong from the Beginning by Kieran Egan.
Cheers, DD
