Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2017-03-25]: You may not be able to judge a book by its cover, but MIT can.

Philosophy Wire: Civilization, Wikipedia, Facebook, animals

Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2012-12-30]: The article which in 2012 had the most visits in Wikipedia was the article about “Facebook”.
