In Our Time over at the BBC has just wrapped up a poll picking out the top ten philosophers of all time. I'm not sure if the poll limited the results to Western philosophers, but every member of the top ten comes from the Western tradition. The top three? 1) Karl Marx; 2) David Hume; and 3) Ludwig Wittgenstein. 2) and 3) seem about right to me -- Karl Marx I've never personally read (except for the Communist Manifesto).

A brief, confrontational interview with Daniel Dennett, professor of philosophy at Tufts University and well-known physicalist. I regret not taking a class with him while I was at Tufts. (via kottke)
