How is any of this cringe? This gets legitimate respect no matter what kind of field you are delving into. :3

Trying to build a culture in philsophy by reading phil books and commenting them. For now I have just started withthe few phil books in my family's library, next I'll start re-reading whatever philosophy I've read in my earlier years, and then I will move on to buy new books depending on what I need.
>currently Habermas, Discourse on Philosophical Modernity Bachelard, Poetic of Space Bachelard, Water and Dreams Jankélévitch, Adventure, bordeom, seriousness Lawrence Durrell, Justine >next Lawrence Durrell, Balthazar, Montolive, Cléa Plato -Dialogues Descartes - Discourse on method Kant - Critiques (all three of them) Simmel -Philosophy of Money Deleuze - Difference and repetition Brentano - Origin of Moral Knowledge, Doctrine of Correct Judgement, Psychology from the Empirical Standpoint Douady - Algebra and Galoisian Theories, but only if I have time The Bhagavad Gita

I could never just solely read philosophy. Not when there are so many scientific and sociological properties of reality to study.
However it does occupy a decent portion of my time, as you can see :3
Isaac Williams
hey :3, good luck!
Levi Reyes
Currently: David Gordon's take down of the analytical Marxists and Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep.

Thanks.
Here is my Goodreads if anyone wants to add me or follow my reviews
The Constitution of the Athenians Against Nature How to Be Your Dog's Best Friend
The only thing I'm looking forward to reading is Aristotle's Revenge by Edward Feser. I just got it in the mail and it looks really good.
Jeremiah Martin
not sure if your taste in literature is patrician or just boring
Oliver Gutierrez
Feser is awesome, his blog is pretty dope too. I remember he had a pretty good take down of Hume's fork on there.
Liam Lewis
Well for starters I'm not trying to be patrician, so to the untrained eye it's 'boring'.
Simply put, however, I take a scientific view towards social philosophy and moral philosophy, and obviously economics, so that the things that I read are extremely cut and dry.
I get the color I need out of life, interacting with people etc etc. I don't need anymore color here. I need information and data to compile and analyze. It's how I am at this point. I've always had mathematics as the first thing I read though.
This is the first time I've finished as many books as I have though without any replacements. Three books are in the mail so I'm reading two books right now. If nothing comes in the mail tomorrow I'm reading just Smith and Aristotle.
Some of these books also cost a lot of money, so it's definitely patrician. Witelo's Perspectivae Liber Primus cost me $300. :3

Brentano gang. That Galois theory book looks interesting as well.
Feser's Aquinas book is a really good summary of his main lines of thought. Have fun user!

Based post. Very refreshing to see some unique books not posted here often. I have been wanting to read Wolfgang Smith. Have you read any of his works before the Qauntum Enigma or are you starting there?
Cameron Stewart
Thanks user. I've read some of his articles in Sophia journal, and also his longer piece on Stephen Hawking, but Quantum Enigma is the first of his books that I've read.
