Book Group

    Hello everyone,
    I was wondering if anyone would like to start a Book Group, where we read chapters/books etc on various philosophical areas of interest, and meet intermittently to discuss. I have friends that do this kind of thing socially with fiction books, but I thought it would be interesting to broaden perspectives and learn some new material.
    Please let me know if anyone is interested and if there is sufficient interest I will have a think on the logistics :)
    Daniel

    Hi Javi,
    Excellent! Judging by the number of comments you have made on this site you will clearly be more learned than I am! I look forward to your insights :) do you lean to a particular type of philosophy?

    do you lean to a particular type of philosophy? — Daniel Duffy

    I am interested in the Philosophy of Language. I have read a bit of Wittgenstein (specifically the work and study on him by David Pears) and discussed J.L. Austin with fellow members of this site.

    Despite having a high number of posts, most of them are in the shoutbox, so I am not that learned at all. :smile:

    Good stuff! I have read some of the usual Stoics - Aurelius, Epicurus, Seneca. A little bit of Bertrand Russell and recently some Nietzsche. There is so much out there haha
