Empiricism audiobooks
Knowledge starts with experience.
The British empiricists asked what we can really know from the evidence of our senses. John Locke, George Berkeley and David Hume make up the classic line, with Francis Bacon's method before them and John Stuart Mill and Bertrand Russell after. Clear, argumentative prose that is easier to follow than its reputation suggests — especially with the text on screen.
