Dr. Ellie Anderson, Philosophy professor and cohost of Overthink podcast, sits down with humor writer and former philosopher Eli Burnstein about his recent book, Dictionary of Fine Distinctions: Nuances, Niceties, and Subtle Shades of Meaning. They discuss why one should care about subtle shades of meaning, Burnstein's distinction between ethics and morality, and some philosophy of language along the way. Check out Burnstein's book here: https://www.unionsquareandco.com/9781....
