Peter Bolland is professor of philosophy and humanities at Southwestern College. He is the author of The Seven Stone Path: An Everyday Journey to Wisdom. In this talk, he will discuss the search for wisdom as humanity’s oldest quest. What is wisdom? And how is it different from knowledge? Is wisdom a body of information, or a way of being in the world? Is it universal or culturally specific?
