Course on the History of Western Philosophy
In the summer and fall of 2016, consultant at ReD and Doctor in Philosophy, Simon Taylor, curated a course on the history of Western philosophy for his coworkers at the Copenhagen office of ReD Associates.
The course as a whole is intended to serve as a basic introduction to the history of Western philosophy. The goal of these seminars is to clarify the main themes, concepts, and critiques of some of the most influential - and, alas, difficult - texts in the Western canon.

Professors in Philosophy Taylor Carman and Simon Critchley curated a course on meaning for ReD Associates, to keep our thinking attuned to the explanatory power of philosophy.
As a part of ReD's internal training, Taylor Carman, Professor at Columbia and Heidegger expert, gave our staff a course on Heidegger's thinking. This page contains the recordings from those sessions, held at ReD's New York office during the fall of 2013 and spring of 2014.
