The Philos-Sophia Vlog | Ad Hoc Hypotheses I: Evolution

In the sixth episode of a remarkable series of interview segments—which we rebooted a couple weeks ago following its original premiere in late 2020—Dr. Wolfgang Smith and Dr. Richard Smith discuss the scientistic strategy of introducing ad hoc hypotheses to preserve existing theories from adverse findings, this week in the context of evolutionary biology.


The third, PSI edition of Dr. Smith’s 1984 classic, Cosmos & Transcendence, is now available, as is our feature documentary chronicling his life and work, The End of Quantum Reality.
