The Policy Studies Organization, in cooperation with the American Public University System, is proud to sponsor the ongoing Guest Lecture Series of the Philosophical Society of Washington. The Lectures, which are the centerpiece of all Philosophical Society of Washington meetings, are selected to appeal to those with a general interest in science and do not require a specialized knowledge of the subject. They always contain information that is current, explanations that are understandable and a few controversial issues to be challenged by a critical listener. The series is designed as much as possible to include a wide range of disciplines. The meetings are held at the Cosmos Club on Friday evenings, and are free and open to the public, with no reservations required. Meetings are followed by lively conversation. And although all participants must exit the Cosmos Club at 10:30 p.m, conversations are continued at another designated location. For more information on the series and to watch video recordings of past sessions, please visit: philsoc.org 18
