UCL Press Play’s inaugural series, The Greatest Good, explores the lasting influence of the philosopher Jeremy Bentham, whose radical progressivism was the intellectual inspiration for UCL. As the first entirely secular university to admit students regardless of religion, UCL was inspired by Bentham’s principles of equality and intellectual freedom. Hosted by Professor Philip Schofield, Director of UCL’s Bentham Project, The Greatest Good features a series of five conversations with UCL’s world-leading academics.
