Ideas beyond the revision guide
Editorial features connect the course to live debates and model the move from knowledge to evaluation.
Does AI make the mind–body problem harder?
Machines can imitate conversation, but imitation is not yet consciousness. Here is how Plato, Aristotle and modern materialism sharpen the debate.
When algorithms choose: can Kant and Mill audit AI?
Automated decisions expose the deepest differences between duty, consequences and character—and show why ethical theories need more than a worked example.
Secular Britain: decline, displacement or transformation?
Falling affiliation does not settle what secularisation means. The sharper debate concerns authority, belonging and the changing public role of Christianity.
The 40/60 essay: turning scholarship into judgement
Top-band essays do not bolt evaluation onto recalled notes. They organise knowledge around a contestable line of reasoning from the first paragraph.
How to read primary texts without drowning
Difficult books become usable when you read for a question, track the author’s moves and turn quotations into arguments rather than decorations.
