This is a fascinating conversation with world-renowned philosopher Martin Cohen on a wide range of issues, including his brilliant new book, I Think Therefore I Eat: The World’s Greatest Minds Tackle the Food Question. We also discuss climate change, politics, the ethics of food, the potential for human extinction and the virtues of chocolate.

Martin Cohen is a philosopher of social science and the author of several books, translated into over twenty languages, including Mind Games and Philosophy for Dummies.. A respected environmentalist, he wrote an influential series of articles in The Times Higher (London) about the politics of the climate change debate. He has written discussion papers on environmental concerns for the European Parliament and been invited by the Chinese government to discuss ecological rights and indigenous communities.
