Thomas Sowell: More on Intellectuals and Society



From the website of The Hoover Institution at Stanford University:
On the occasion of the publication of a new edition of his book Intellectuals and Society, Thomas Sowell returns to Uncommon Knowledge for a wide-ranging interview.
This is the entire five parts of the latest interview of Dr. Sowell by Peter Robinson at The Hover Institution.  It's typical Sowell: full of wisdom that can be at the same time pithy and humorous.  Please don't miss any of the 52+ minutes of the interview; you can watch one segment at a time and return and pick it up where you left off.

The Revised and Expanded edition of the original Intellectuals and Society is available at Amazon.Com.  The original edition by Dr. Sowell was published in 2009.

For additional posts on Thomas Sowell, you can type his name in the "Search This Blog" box under the flags on the right.

Condoleezza Rice on "Uncommon Knowledge"



The video was uploaded by Pajamasmedia with the following introductory remarks:
Is war in Iran imminent? Find out as former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice talks to Peter Robinson about Iraq, Iran, Israel, Afghanistan and Aretha Franklin. Secretary Rice focuses on the lessons of 9/11, and also discusses the surprising remarks of Vladimir Putin on that day. In a moment of candor, Secretary Rice talks about the misunderstandings during the war in Iraq, and why the US chose not to go to war with Iran during the Bush Administration. Hear more about Middle East policy in this very candid "Uncommon Knowledge" interview.
This is from the "Uncommon Knowledge" website concerning the interview with former Secretary of State Condoleeza Rice:
Condoleezza Rice, senior fellow on public policy at the Hoover Institution and a professor of political science at Stanford University, discusses the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, her days as George Bush's national security adviser and secretary of state, and the current state of the world, including Israel, Iran, and China.
