They called in order to have me on ‘The Guestroom’, which is a ‘journey into someone else’s life every day of the week’ with host Leon Compton. Very flattered that they considered me!

I have so much to do… so little time! But in the meantime, I’ll be attending: 2010 Annual Conference for “Philosophy in the Classroom” – 5-7 July, 2010 at the University of New South Wales. I plan to be one or two days either side of these dates, so I don’t know if there’s an [...]
