The Roman Empire became Christian in 323 AD; about two centuries later, the rest
of Europe began to convert. Medieval culture blurred the line between the sacred and the secular.
While political and religious hierarchies vied for influence, liberal arts education claimed to seek
sacred truths through secular means. But when Aristotle's works were first translated from Arabic,
there began a conflict between reason and faith. Franciscan John Duns Scotus was one philosopher
who tried to bridge this gap.

The World of Philosophy series presents the questions, interests, and worldviews of the world's great
philosophers and philosophical traditions. Special emphasis on clear and relevant explanations, in
understandable language, give you a new arsenal of insights toward living a better life.

Audio books, unlike ordinary books, are a lot more useful and time efficient in the long run. To sit down and read a book can be a very enjoyable experience but unfortunately only when time permits. A lot of us therefore find us putting aside the books for more pressing matters, with audio books however you can do both. Audio books give you the freedom to listen anywhere, just by simply putting it on a MP3 player. For most book fanatics space is a real issue and usually their houses end up looking like a library. Since audiobooks are portable and in music file format such as Mp3 or WMA the space that’s really being used up is your hard drive which takes up a minuscule amount in comparison. So for the busy individual where free time is somewhat of a luxury, audio books may just be the solution you have been looking for, a way to combine free time and work effortlessly.
