Notes
One place where our seriousness did not bear fruit was the public session of a conference in Berkeley in 2010 where Bert and I were debating things but one of the members of the audience, whose name I won’t reveal here, kept shouting out comments—really shouting—and ruined the whole thing; I was very disappointed that a potentially magic moment was spoiled.
Bert’s piece is the chapter that follows, Chap. 7, and is entitled ‘Embodied Expertise according to Martin Heidegger, Maurice Merleau-Ponty, and Samuel Todes’. As the title indicates, it explains the phenomenological position without reference to any wider context of debate.
One of the strange features of the academic world, which makes it a bit like religion, is that everyone sincere can believe they are right irrespective of their position in the academic hierarchy.
