Amazon Wishlists

I've added my Amazon Wishlist items on the sidebar. These are merely books and albums/DVDs that I'd like to read/hear/view, even possibly own. Not that I'm asking anyone to buy them for me, though you could if you wanted to (ha! fat chance eh?) I'd say I've read/heard/viewed about 10 to 20 percent of the lists, exclusively by borrowing from the library. I'll keep adding to them from time to time.

So basically anything C.S. Lewis. :) I second that. And hey...I saw War and Peace on that list! That was my 'what book would you take to a deserted island' book! Though 'Paradise Lost' still trumps Tolstoy in priority.

hey Dennis, just a friendly FYI: Copleston is good, certainly a genius who did tons for philosophy, but he's considered a bit dated by some in the profession. i don't think that should stop us from reading him; but maybe just good to know that he doesn't constitute the most up-to-date or (in some cases) accurate interpretations of the people he covers. there's a series in the midst of being put out by Routledge on the great philosophers (or something like that) that will probably be the benchmark in history of phil for a while to come. hope you're well, luke

"or something like that"? Talk about being precise (grin). But thanks for the FYI.

GiCurlz,

I had a clever comment for you but it escaped me (really).
