Book Reviews of The Book: On the Taboo Against Knowing Who You Are
Book Review: A primer on stepping outside the boundaries of yourself.
Summary: 4 Stars
Alan Watts' "The Book" is a wonderful introduction to his East-meets-West perspective on living. Watts writes in a concise, accessible, and gently humorous style that coaxes the reader into thinking about the world in new ways, yet never feels preachy or self-righteous. "The Book" will inspire newcomers to undertake further philosophical explorations, and remind more seasoned seekers that philosophy can be refreshingly simple.
