Book Reviews of The Cornel West Reader
Book Review: A difficult read, but well worth the work!
Summary: 5 Stars
This is a wonderful, and much needed body of work. West is one of our Centuries greatest minds. Through his essays, and a few short stories, he weaves images of Black American Culture, classical philosophy, scientific theory, world history, and concepts of world religions into a tapestry of deep thought and serious innovation. He's a philospher with the "funk" of James Brown, and the fluidity of water. He compares Chekovic to Coltrane. If you want a change from the "he/she" novels of a "Jerome Dickey", try this soulful delight.
