Knowledge isn't intellect, it's a product of functional memory.

Re: What are you folks reading?
I'm well read/educated in physics, math, biology, evolution, and I have a layman's knowledge of psychology. I've also read much of the bible directly, and various articles about it.
I've also read much of the literature of various religions, astrology, homeopathy, various pseudoscience, and rubbish like field of consciousness via quantum mechanics (that was for you [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]). |

Re: What are you folks reading?
I am in the middle of a tome called " Green Eggs and Ham."
The follow up, I'm told, is called "One fish, two fish" but I doubt that I'll fully grasp the concepts presented there. |

I need titles of good solid reading material. I need a good read. [/ QUOTE ] What didn't you just say so? [ QUOTE ] Other than David Sklansky and J.Stew, are any of you reading anything and trying to learn what is really going on or are you just spitting out your own personal ideas with no research? If you are, what kind of research do you have to prove any of your theories? First seek yee the truth. [/ QUOTE ] Anyway, here's my picks: "What Remains to Be Discovered : Mapping the Secrets of the Universe, the Origins of Life, and the Future of the Human Race" Amazon This was written by editor of Nature for the past 25 years. Nature is the most prestigious scientific journal in the world, and this guy is in a great position to tell you what the future holds. His writing is clear and very insightful. An amazing read. "Fame in the 20th Century" by Clive James This isn't strictly science, but an interesting account of the effects of the media and fame on modern society. It's not some postmodern intellectualist crap, it's meant to be entertaining and historical, and does a good job of touching on sociology. More technically and math inclined: "The Feynmann lectures on physics" Pure brilliance. Far better than A Brief History of Time. That was written by a nerd in a wheelchair doing the mental equivalent of jacking off. |
