Philosophy Culture and Vision: African Perspectives. Selected Essays
Kwame GyekyeLiam BrightEyes turning into love hearts, steam coming out of my ears, somehow floating prone in mid air as I say "wowsa!", all caused by the sight of my copy of Gyeke's Philosophy, Culture, and Vision finally arriving.

Justice and the Meritocratic State
Thomas MulliganLiam BrightI started reading Justice and the Meritocratic State by Thomas Mulligan. The views and, like, persona of the author are pretty much the exact opposite of mine. Look at him, he’s literally a CIA man! But I’m actually really liking the book. It’s a cogent defence of centrism. https://t.co/xCJj8m7MSm

The Republic
PlatoLiam Bright@brettkarlan Also it just seems that some of humanity's greatest cultural goods are to be found in their philosophy. The world would be poorer in an important way without Plato's Republic or the Zhuangzi.
