Peter Whitfield has been teaching courses in Philosophy for many years. His greatest claim to teach with any authority is that nothing he presents has any originality. Much is taken from ancient wisdom and teachings, which are found in the perennial philosophies or from other teachers. The stories that Peter writes are thousands of years old. The only possible claim to any inventiveness he makes is that these ancient ideas are as relevant today as they were when the leader of the most powerful nation on the planet wore purple robes and sandals. Peter has also been a publisher and a businessman and is a devoted father to five children.
