Professor Professor Michael D. C. Drout
In How to Think: The Liberal Arts and Their Enduring Value, Professor Michael D. C. Drout gives an impassioned defense and celebration of the value of the liberal arts. Charting the evolution of the liberal arts from their roots in the educational system of Ancient Rome through the Middle Ages and to the present day, Drout shows how the liberal arts have consistently been "the tools to rule", essential to the education of the leaders of society. Offering a reasoned defense of their continuing value, Drout also provides suggestions for improving the state of the liberal arts in contemporary society.

What made the experience of listening to Modern Scholar: How to Think the most enjoyable?
There is something so satisfying about how Drout teaches you while teaching you. He takes the information he's sharing, throws in historical representations os the data and then rounds it out with full explanations of every bit of information he shares (even adding defining comments at the ends seemingly random rabbit holes and tangents). I'm always as amazed as I am enlightened.I can't get enough of Professor Drout!

Strangely, the Reference Guide that accompanies his other books (and most Modern Scholar courses) is missing from this one. Hopefully, Audible will add it soon. I would like to do a more detailed study of this work but that is very difficult without the reference guide.
Excellent Course But Where is the Reference Guide?

In case it needs to be said, pay attention to the subtitle and the description, not just the title. Here's a description of the eight individual lectures:
Lecture 1: Where the Liberal Arts came from. Lecture 2: How the sciences split off from the liberal arts. Lecture 3: The liberal arts as "the tools to rule." Lecture 4: Can the liberal arts make you a better person? Lecture 5: The best reasons for studying the liberal arts: Solving complex problems, and preserving and transmitting culture. Lecture 6: Case study: Beowulf. Lecture 7: What's wrong with the liberal arts, and how to fix it. Lecture 8: Answering the critics of the liberal arts.
