Where would we be without emotions?
Many philosophers throughout history have thought the emotions serve only to cloud our judgments and actions. Phrases like "He's just acting emotionally" or "Her judgment is clouded by emotion" are phrases of condemnation, not of praise. Still, some philosophers have argued the emotions have an intelligence of their own and that the emotions are indispensable for our ethical lives. Join John and Ken and their guest Martha Nussbaum, author of Upheavals of Thought: The Intelligence of Emotions, as they explore the role of emotions in well-lived lives and well-ordered societies.
