    Product description

    The Great Courses - The Modern Scholar - Volume - P The Great Courses – P offerings create a rich blend of science, philosophy, history, and personal growth, with topics ranging from particle physics to political theory. On the scientific side, Richard Wolfson’s Physics and Our Universe and Physics in Your Life provide accessible but rigorous explorations of the physical world, complemented by Steven Pollock’s Particle Physics for Non-Physicists and Catherine Kleier’s Plant Science. Physiology, fitness, and applied science appear in Dean Hodgkin’s Physiology and Fitness, while Bruce Edwards’ Prove It strengthens logic and mathematical reasoning. Courses on performance and culture include Colin McAllister’s Playing Guitar Like a Pro and Bruce Markusen’s Play Ball!, a cultural history of baseball. Steven Tuck’s Pompeii brings ancient Roman daily life vividly into focus, while Thomas Noble’s Popes and the Papacy traces religious leadership across centuries. Philosophy and human reflection stand at the heart of this section. David Roochnik’s Plato’s Republic and Michael Sugrue’s Plato, Socrates, and the Dialogues anchor classical thought, supported by James Hall’s Philosophy of Religion and Phillip Cary’s Philosophy and Religion in the West. Broader questions of meaning are addressed in Stephen Erickson’s Philosophy as a Guide to Living and Francis Ambrosio’s Philosophy, Religion, and the Meaning of Life. Patrick Grim’s Philosophy of Mind looks at consciousness and AI, while Luke Timothy Johnson’s Practical Philosophy grounds moral thought in Greco-Roman traditions. History and power are explored in Dennis Dalton’s Power Over People and Dorsey Armstrong’s and Kara Cooney’s studies of powerful women in medieval and ancient contexts. Meanwhile, Mark Muesse’s Practicing Mindfulness and David Martin’s Psychology of Human Behavior provide practical insights into meditation and modern psychology, and Jeffrey Rosen’s Privacy, Property, and Free Speech ties philosophy directly into contemporary constitutional debates. Together, these courses emphasize how the “P” catalog balances abstract ideas, concrete sciences, and lived human experience in ways both timeless and practical.
