pomonomo2003: I read and enjoyed Peters decades ago. Others should do so too. As always with the dated books on this list, scholarship has moved on. But if one wants to do more with ones reading than recite the au courant scholarly understanding(s) than one has to come to terms with how the various disciplines we study have developed. But development is anathema to those who parrot 'Truth'!

pomonomo2003: Never owned but read. I delighted in this book as a young man. Scholarship was never impressed with it. Read it for pleasure, look elsewhere for scholarly consensus. Deserves to be reprinted.

pomonomo2003: When I was young, no one applied to the Koran the source and historical criticism typical of biblical studies. This was one of the first attempts to do so. The book makes extensive use of non-Koranic sources for their then startling thesis. As times changed, more scholars would follow in their critical steps.

pomonomo2003: An important book from the German 'Konservative Revolution' Tradition that I now own. This is a very thoughtful essay on the woes that modern man faces. He argues that the increase in choices that modernity brings is the root cause of alienation and neurosis. -While not agreeing, I found his arguments provocative.

pomonomo2003: A very interesting book on how humanity ate itself into civilization. From this point of view, agriculture was not a triumph; but rather a necessity imposed by our ancestors over-eating and over-reproducing. Owned, read.

pomonomo2003: Best book on Trotskyism I ever saw. Covers theory and events from Trotsky to Tony Cliff. However, I enjoyed the chapter on Trotskyite heresies (Shachtman, CLR James, and Castoriadis) most of all. Should be reprinted.

pomonomo2003: Wonderfully thoughtful book that comes out of the French post-Stalinist tradition. Axelos is attempting to read Marx (the early Marx) in the light (or glare) of Heidegger. Earlier, Kojeve and Marcuse were attempting something similar, all with differing results. This book should be reprinted!

pomonomo2003: I own and have read this book. An interesting and thoughtful take on Freudian meta-psychology. He holds that culture and religion have similar trajectories and patterns. Without being convinced (I am a nihilist; we are never really convinced), I found the argument, at times, riveting.

pomonomo2003: One could argue that the first to experience, in a modern context, an 'End of Philosophy' were the Young Hegelians. Marx thought he knew the way out: historical activity. Love to see what our author makes of this!

pomonomo2003: There is so little available on Lukacs late Ontology that, despite the relentlessly negative tone of our author, I recommend that this book be republished. It has info about the Ontology that is still very difficult to find elsewhere.

pomonomo2003: Unfamiliar with this author and book. But the so-called 'makers knowledge tradition' and its relation to Francis Bacon sounds delicious. Knowledge as Doing was the original understanding of early modern Science. This was later replaced by Knowledge as Theory thanks to the success of our mathematicized physics.
