DESCRIPTION:This lecture deals with whether philosophy is aptly viewed as 
 a science. Professor McGinn suggests that although philosophy is a priori 
 conceptual analysis it is still a science - a formal science. Moreover\, i
 t can be described as empirical\, natural\, experimental science. The gulf
  between philosophy and the other sciences is therefore not as great as ma
 ny have supposed. In the light of this re-classification\, it might be bes
 t to re-name philosophy.\n\nBooking is essential as places are limited –
