Who Was Lucretius? with Thomas Nail

Thomas Nail joins the cast to give us an overview of the work of
the ancient philosopher Lucretius, who is known for his generally
atheistic ontology and his theory of the clinamen or "the
swerve". The discussion covers the interest of 20th century
philosophers in Lucretius theories, as well as the related
political implications which issued forth. 

Thomas is the author of many books that may be of interest to
