The New Leviathan

I have resolved to read Collingwood's The New Leviathan, Or, Man, Society, Civilization, And Barbarism.

I was trying to read War and Peace but it turns out I'm too much of an amateur (sorry J-dawg).

But frankly I'm delighted at the idea of tackling a big awesome philosophy book. Especially one by Collingwood. And especially one so relevant to my current interests. Politics, culture, war, minds, so on. Collingwood is all up on all of that shit.

Can't wait to sink my teeth into it.

About Me

I spend most of my time working as a mental health professional. I have been preoccupied with philosophy, politics, healing, and many other questions for the last 15 years or so. I am currently working on putting together my study of Plato and Aristotle with contemporary work in philosophy, psychology, psychotherapy, and trauma research. I use this place primarily as a workshop for ideas. I welcome conversation with anyone working on similar problems. The major contours of my basic project have been outlined here
