Dr. Farrell often refers to Leonard Bernstein’s 1973 Norton lecture series on music that incorporates linguistics, poetry, philosophy, and physics. Listening to them now seems even more appropriate with the new book.

I was lucky enough to attend many of his children’s series presentations through the Cincinnati Symphony. It definitely “colored” my life. He was a national treasure…

I’m not sure if this is positive but it sounds like it is. Interestingly the Arch Bishop of Canterbury is part of this think-tank and a pro-Brexit businessman. Unfortunately, I doubt the current UK government has the gumption to make any necessary changes https://www.independent.co.uk/news/business/news/uk-economy-ippr-commission-on-economic-justic…[Read more]

Folks I want to thank everyone who has bought the new book. It just cleared that “magical threshold” I had in my head for this experiment, so I will like do all books in a self-published format in the future.

That’s great news. This might also facilitate editions translated into other languages, avoiding thorny issues of rights held by publishers.

Yes, great news and now the New York Times knows what it can do with their best selling list, they can………..censored !!!!!!!!!!!

“To be a philosopher, or a scientific man, you must be as a little child, with all the sincerity and simple-mindedness of the child’s vision, with all the plasticity of the child’s mental habits.
What are the exercises conducive to this? Extensive reading to begin with. A hundred volumes a year or 3 2/3 days per volume does not sound like hard…[Read more]

After one studies the Engel book it is truly startling to see how many of these fallacies are out there in “our everydayness” (Walker Percy’s term for the background of assumptions within which we operate and that we unknowingly absorb osmotically not from the original clear Aether but instead from its unclear replacement) in what we read and…[Read more]

Yes, reading several books simultaneously is an excellent strategy for acquiring the skill of “connecting the dots” by osmosis. 🙂

Ditto. I’m reading Wall St &FDR, War and Society in Renaissance History and The South China Sea at the moment.

Another resource or two to recommend … S. Morris Engel’s – With Good Reason. The earlier editions can be found very reasonably on Addall.com. The other would be An Illustrated Book of Bad Arguments by Ali Alsomossawi. The latter here a kind of “graphic comic” introduction to the fallacies for those who have no background.
This might serve…[Read more]-
Yes, logical fallacies was the expression I wanted!

Re watched the movie “Jupiter Ascending ” tonight. I haven’t watched it since before came across the Giza realm. After that news about Saturn and it’s south pole, I decided to rewatch it.
I sit and wonder, was this movie inspired by “The Cosmic war” ? Did the writers of movie also know something? The movie makes ones mind wonder. So, is the…[Read more] -

My granddaughter asked me if I had any ‘informational’ books she could read for school. I figured out, she meant non-fiction. Needless to say, I registered my objections to the term. It’s not easy helping our children/grandchildren navigate these times.
-
Start with Babylon’s Banksters. 🙂
-
If the teachers are worried she can always say that it is a “baby banking” manual which sounds more innocuous.
-
Ihave to contend with her parents. What I did do is give my grandson Rules for Argument. I’m advising develop an argument for alternative points of view as an intellectual exercise. My granddaughter will take a debate class this year. That should help.
-
Debate class? There are a few books around on how to argue a case and to detect and counter false arguments (such as when people, instead of replying on what you say, reply with personal labelling (e.g. “if you say that it means that you are a…”)

Struggling with discipline. I want to read Babylon’s Banksters and Mind and Medium, however I am reading the books in order. Sigh. I’m just finishing The SS Brotherhood of the Bell. 😊
-
Here’s a compromise: read several books at the same time including B.B. !

The name of the game is analogy and not chronology 🙂

Was this before or after he started smoking weed with him? This report suggests that Joe Rogan was a comedy podcast… (hmmmmm). Anyway, you can find similar coverage on Newsweek.

Well, the BBC reported erroneously that the ‘oldest’ human skeleton found in the Americas was an exhibit. There is evidence of a much older human presence in South America, but I suspect that a DNA anyalysis of these remains may have shown affinities with Australian aboriginal haplogroups (see: https://youtu.be/r6IrMjfbh6E). That’s just one very…[Read more]
