i dont like reading philosophy. the wording is too dense for me. I like hearing synopsis of their ideas though

Yeah there is a lot of padding in them.

I also like reading synopses of them, saves me the annoyed feeling I get when I have to read through heaps of something I don't agree with.

thus spake zarathustra is not dense at all, it's a breeze to read

Yeah Nietzsche is a good bit of fun, he's a bit dreary at times though.

I feel for anyone who tried to publish their thoughts back when the Catholic church would kill you for not thinking like them.

yeah

i really must purchase The Running Man on DVD

All the books I listed are more or less, about the approaches to science, both in a historical context and further the actual application, why something more or less "works", or what we value as a correct answer in the current paradigm, identifies the different events which can take place during a paradigm, which have historically hinted towards a paradigm shift etc (which historically has repeated the same process numerous times during the evolution in science), and a lot of different approaches to logical arguments (which are hot).

They're not very intense reads (well, [I]Conjectures...[/I] re. Popper gets kinda intense), if a lazy stoner can chill back and read them, they're ok :)

Can I please have free copies?

If not, how much is one.

It's not philosophy, but Noam Chomsky's [I]Hegemony or Survival[/I] is good sociopolitical commentary. You'd probably like it better; he's a linguist so he doesn't waffle.

Chomsky is great. I watched [I]Manufacturing Consent[/i] not all that long ago, superb documentary about the media and how it runs everything.

Also, The Corporation was a great doco directed by the same guy featuring Chomsky amongst others.

He's too easily dismissed in PNWI. Bitches.

Go contribute to my R&M Post-Rock Thread Haz, you saucy minx.

chomskys interview with ali g is priceless
