William Collins’s talk at ICMI21 was Moral Usurpation: Understanding Our Predicament (video, 46:57). We’ve heard lots of favourable comments about it.

An hour ago I received an email with this:

Mike,

I just watched William Collins’ ‘Moral Usurpation: Understanding Our Predicament’.

This talk is a stunning masterpiece of exposition. The transcript simply must be published.

Regards

Peter

I contacted William Collins, who kindly and immediately provided the transcript. Enjoy.

Enjoy. The end of the piece:

Adele, 33, was recently quizzed about her book collection in a video interview with Vogue at her LA home. The diverse collection included the titles The Mosaics Of Rome and Japanese Prints. ‘There are some good ones up there,’ she said as the camera panned the shelves.

When the interviewer asked: ‘Can you learn a lot about a person by the books they keep?’, Adele replied: ‘Well I would say that, but I don’t know many people that have real books in their house any more. They seem to have Kindle or they just don’t read at all or on their phone.’
