I haven’t read this book but it’s on my to-read list, what do you all think of it?
He doesn't understand Buddhism at all.
>>23618937Can you elaborate?
>>23618952See pic related for a better western perspective on Buddhism.
>>23618930Wright is an anxious and neurotic dude. It lets him perseverate on one issue or another, but he hardly exudes the qualities you would want for Buddhist instruction. I'm sure he has something useful to say but it's likely going to be left brained and tunnel visioned.
>>23618930He is anxious and neurotic. I haven't read the book but I've listened to him talk about politics on Bloggingheads for years. He was one of the first guys to do the video format, years before it took off. Now he calls it Nonzero:https://youtu.be/_zOfXeo6AU4Paul Bloom is pretty boring though. I like Mickey Kaus. He's such a fucking weirdo.
