Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed watching your reflections tonight and I hope to eventually read a few of these myself. (Aside from the first one which we read together!)

Thank you, Mike! Would love to see a similar end-of-year retrospective from you if you get a chance. Regardless, Happy New Year and all the best in 2024!

@@DavoodGozli Definitely planning on it still! I think I'm going to film it tomorrow, had some technical difficulties earlier this week but all looks good now.

The bee sting is next on my reading list, and I was on the fence about Eileen, so it was good to hear your thoughts.

Thanks for your work this year, Davood! Great list, and I need to pick up Alireza Taheri's book. I enjoyed your conversation with him immensely and looking forward to diving into it in 2024. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

Hello Davood, Being a recently retired social worker, I’m not sure where to look for some of these books. In particular , the Freud and Said book is over hundred bucks on Amazon and Thrift Books. Can you think of any other places to look? Thanks for all your efforts here while in your year of transition. Maybe have a couple of bumps and balderdash with friends between now and the new year - see you soon… ~D

Thank you, Dan! That's an important point and something I wish I had addressed in the video. The high price put on the academic books, combined with the fact that the authors get a very little share of it, is unfortunate. See if you could access the book through Springer Link (it's supposed to provide free access through institutions, and the institutional access is occasionally not necessary). link.springer.com/book/10.1007/978-3-030-56743-9
