what is a hard nonfiction book you read?

@mrpandaman5421 Ай бұрын

Something Deeply Hidden, Sean Carroll It is written in simple language, but it’s the concepts that are difficult for someone who doesn’t know the mathematical modelling behind it.

@@mrpandaman5421 I want to read Sean Caroll. My physics is terrible, so I would probably spend a few years going through undergraduate textbooks first.

Gotta be The Ego Tunnel by Thomas Metzinger. It's a must read if you care at all about philosophy of mind though.

@@chrisw7347 I want to do a deep dive through philosophy of mind anthologies and authors. Will add this one. So much stuff to read! My tbr is literally out of control. Lol. I have reading plans for as far as 2030.

I liked the Oxford Handbook of Contemporary Phenomenology! Edit: I don't remember much from the book, but I feel like it molded my perception in some unconscious way that now makes me see the world somewhat differently (which I guess other works like Being and Time and Being and Nothingness have also done).

It was a fun book! I read it in the park, which made it more fun.

The hardest non fiction that I have ever read is my Maths book back in school.. Joking - Personally when I started philisophy then the books like: Beyond good and evil, being and time, critique of pure reason - these really went over my head the first time and it was severly difficult to get through.

Everyone struggles with those authors! They are tough reads.

Could you please recommend me a book with a simple English not that much complicated word because I am beginner

@IdeasInHat Ай бұрын

I am currently reading Seneca, Cicero, and other stoic writers in Turkish. They are easy to read. Try those.

I got a bit of challenge for you. Lets say somone gave have $150 to buy books for them to read, and each book has to be of different genre, you also have to get as many as can while still maintaing a good balance of quality and affordability. What books do you get?

@IdeasInHat Ай бұрын

Wow that is not an easy question to answer lol. Makes a good video though. For 150 my guess is you could probably buy 5 or 6 good nonfiction books new. But if you are living in the united states, you can buy used nonfiction books for literally 1$.
