I had a great massage late friday afternoon. Then I bought more books:
- Josephus: The Jewish war
Describes the Jewish uprising against the Romans 66-73 A.D, ending with the fall of Masada and the legendary mass suicide. When I visited Masada in 1989 I hadn’t read the original story.
- Ray Monk: 1921-1970, The ghost of madness
The second part of Monk’s Bertrand Russell biography.
- Basho: On love and barley
Haiku poems
- Boethius: The Consolation of Philosophy
Last work of Roman philosopher executed in AD 525
- Hilary Rose & Steven Rose: Alas, Poor Darwin
An antology with criticism of evolutionary psychology
- Allan Hobson: Dreaming as delirium
A well-known psychiatrist and dream researcher speculates about why we dream.
