pickFascinating and enjoyable are not how I would have described reading this. I‘ve had this on my tbr since 2016, I‘ve always imagined this to be a difficult read, but instead it was the complete opposite, and what a read!!! I didn‘t grasp everything but I was okay with this as I intend to read this several more times more whilst trying to get more familiar with global ancient history.

I'm almost half way through. There are no ghosts or witches in this one, but the thought of reading it has always been a scary thought. 🎃🎃
This has been on my tbr for ages, and finally reading it. Not exactly Halloween read but the thought of wanting to read it was scary enough. 😃

A beautiful work that results in provoking deep thought about the ideas that drove societies, key historical figures, and governments through time. Herman invites the reader to take stock of what ideas and world views are driving your daily decisions."

"The catastrophes of the 20th century arose not because men argued too much but because they gave up arguing at all."

If you find philosophy boring I encourage you to read about Peter Abelard's steamy love affair and the tragic conclusion. It's pretty wild. #nonfiction #history #philosophy
pickThis was surely original food-for-thought, and out of my comfort zone. I want to read more by this author for sure.
Anyone else still struggling to review this one? It‘s been over a month, we are starting our next book‘s discussion TOMORROW, and I still don‘t have a handle on exactly what this was.

Wish I had had this mug when I actually worked in an office. It just doesn‘t hit as hard over Zoom. 😂
