This is an interesting set of recommendations on my iTunes receipt.
Perhaps I haven’t been giving Ms. Lavigne enough credit. I mean to show up along side Sam Harris, Terry Gross, and Richard Dawkins…I mean. Wow Alright…I admit it. I purchased Candyman. It’s awesome. It has a Campari girl!
I just purchased Christopher Hitchens’ God is not Great and while there are no broad-shouldered singing soldiers or sexy girls in pencil skirts, it’s a fantastic book to hear read aloud (by the author).
It makes one feel all smug* and warm in a wooly academic sweater while listening to some erudite Brit Ex-pat on the radio.
The narrative is a striking balance of personal history wrapped in anecdotal history. Or perhaps it’s the other way around, in reverse. The book reads, not so much like an argument, but an extended description of one (very smart) man’s thoughts on the subject.
It’s challenging subject matter, no matter your personal philosophy and give one much to think about.
