1. Read from 25 to 29 December 2020
Rating: 3/5
The first two chapters were really very good. I was nodding to myself, agreeing with what was being argued, and there were insights into e.g. why scientists do their job (because they really enjoy it) that were spot on. After these, later chapters tended to get rather bogged down in heavy detail, of cross-arguments and of quotations that there difficult to follow. But on the whole I'm glad I read this 160 page book.
I heard about this author and book while watching the lecture series on YouTube given by Holmes, about a History of Philosophy.
