Tja was soll ich Euch erzählen? Hüte Dich vor Fortsetzungen, denn sie könnten einfach nur das schale, aufgewärmte Gericht vom letzten Mal sein. Genau das trifft auf dieses Buch zu, es hat sehr wenig mit Moral zu tun und nervt aus mehreren Gründen massiv.1. Redundanz: Der Autor Pirisg bzw. sein Alt...
Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance by Robert M. Pirsig is an iconic story chronicling a father-son American West motorcycle journey, peppered with philosophical musings and observations on American culture. This was a (530 page) book which I truly could not put down. Though Pirsig touches on ...
This is one of those books that I am wondering why it actually took me so long to get around to reading. I guess a part of it had to do with the title (when I was somewhat more fundamentalist in my faith, anything that reeked of another religion would be automatically discarded), but then I guess it...
I had to read this book in high school. It was an arduous slog, since philosophy has never really been a great interest of mine. To this day, I don't know why we read it for English class, or what I was supposed to get out of it. All I remember about it was the shock therapy.
This book came to me at a strange time. Normally I would give a book like this two stars and be done with it. But not now. I am going through something of a minor existential crisis, and as a result, I am taking some time off so as to focus on things of import. The plot of this book is not really ...
This book would have better been titled Motorcycles, Science, Math, and Traveling in the West. I liked the motorcycles, I liked the traveling and I didn't mind SOME of the math, science and philosophy. Maybe it's just dated. IDK. I didn't complete it, so I'm not going to rate it. It will go back int...
I've met well-educated 20 year olds who'd read this more than a dozen times. Although I read this in my 20s as well, I can't remember much from 1 reading. I do remember seeing an entire shelf of economics books at a university library, just trying to "define" the concept of value.
Ugh ugh ugh!! Pretentious blather is all I can say about the Zen parts. Kind of enjoyed some of the travel sections but even they got tedious after a while. The author and his son, Chris stopped enjoying their trip so there was not much pleasant to say about it from then on. The most interesting ...
