Petrotoxin is right. The books that he recommends are of good ideas and truly truly evokes thought and ponder.
Philosophy is broad and starting slowly is the way to go.
What's the best Philosophy & Psychology book?

QUOTE(milleu @ May 11 2009, 02:32 PM) wah most of the book recommended is text book. I like Plato erotic dialogue.Descartes and Kant. QUOTE(PetroToxin @ May 11 2009, 06:20 PM) Haha... They are not textbooks to me, it's about the love of knowledge and the admiration of logical thinking. I enjoy and adore Schopenhauer and Nietzsche philosophy better than others. Perhaps im being a pessimistic in life (N) and i found it echo my thoughts.I have Critique of Pure Reason by Kant, I find it very much heavier compared to the other philosophers' writings.   |

 I'm reading Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion by Robert B. Cialdini. Bought two days ago from Kinokuniya at RM51.84 (original price RM72). That 28% less is from Daruma Card. Amazon (with reviews): http://tr.im/ngTr Kinokuniya (with RM): http://tr.im/ngUk |
