"Philosophy & What Matters" deals with questions that matter to us from a philosophical point of view. 

It’s true that 2 + 2 = 4. It’s also true that we are now in a philosophy interview. But what makes these things true? According to the Australian philosopher David Armstrong, truths are made true by truthmakers. But what are these truthmakers, and why do they matter?

To discuss truthmaking theory, we are privileged to have James Franklin, one of David Armstrong’s most brilliant students. Professor Franklin is an honorary professor at the School of Mathematics and Statistics at the University of New South Wales.
