Professor A.C. Grayling joined us at The White House for an intimate lunch to celebrate the launch of his book, For the Good of the World.
Small Giants host an afternoon with philosopher A.C. Grayling to explore solutions to the big challenges that are troubling us today: climate change, technology and justice. In his new book, For the Good of the World: Is Global Agreement on Global Challenges Possible, Grayling asks: can we agree on a set of values that will allow us to confront the numerous threats we face, or will we continue with disagreements and antipathies.
