A bunch of school stuff. Mostly philosophy texts. I've learned two things: many analytical philosophers are rather dry and that I still love my French philosophers (though Deleuze not so much...).
The last thing I was reading for please was The Great Partnership: Science, Religion, and the Search of Meaning by Rabbi Jonathan Sacks. I have yet to finish it, sorta got stuck in the "Relationship" chapter (it becomes very obvious his conservative social stance at this point). I still find it nonetheless interesting though I don't agree with him on several points, he does bring up good points, especially regarding the odd marriage of the Hebrew notion of God and the Aristotelian God and how that led to our (starting with the 17th century) modern problem of science and religion. His prescriptive and parallels he draws are interesting for the most part. I just picked up Charles Taylor's A Secular Age since many of my profs have mentioned him and seems worth a try. The book is rather huge, so it might be a rather taxing undertaking so close to exams.
