    great video! minor note, the 1st edition of the great books was 54 volumes (released in 1952, which I think is where the 52 comes from)
    I have documented all of the changes to translations between the 1st and 2nd editions of the Great Books of the Western World, as well as tons of other ancillary things related to that set, since i have both the 1st and 2nd editions. let me know if you are interested in any of my documents

    I collect, and read, encyclopedias I have the entire Great Books of the Western World set including all the Gateway to the Great Books, The Great Ideas Program and The Great Ideas Today but I don't have that set but I will get it

    Can I make a request? an American Bar Association panel voted Friday to drop a requirement that law school applicants take the LSAT or another standardized admissions test, i'd love to see your videos on that

    I have the 1991 edition & the Subject Outlines in the Propedia don't have the EB references for the different Parts, Divisions or Subjects such as you showed at around the 18th minute mark of the video. Is there anyway to get a copy of this?

    • @timothykenny

      You’d have to find it on Amazon or eBay.

    Where is the best place to buy a lot of the volumes of the encyclopedia brittannica? I’m from the UK, and I can’t seem to find any of them anywhere to buy online that are over 300 pounds in price

    • @timothykenny

      eBay is best. 300-500 usd is normal for a used set.

    it is sad that we don't have that type of outlineof knowledge in any other knowledge source in the contemporary era. Do you know if there are something similar to micropedia and propedia ?

      Library of congress and Dewey decimal are closest. You can email me if you want a paid course I teach that builds on this.
