Historia4.5 out of 5 stars 241
In the India of 1942, two rapes take place simultaneously - that of an English girl in Mayapore, and that of India by the British. In each, physical violence, racial animosity, the coercion of the weak by the strong all play their part, but playing a part too are love, affection, loyalty, and recognition that the last division of all to be overcome is the colour of the skin.

What a masterful reading!
Revisado: 03-11-24
PLEASE have Sam Dastor read the rest of these books! For all that the story and writing has me captivated, thank goodness I sampled the next reader before buying the next installment — what a study in contrast! And what a disappointment! Why in the world follow inspired execution with sub-turgid mediocrity? Does anyone actually curate audible’s production? Or is it all AI?

In Tertium Organum Ouspensky questions the assumptions we have about our world. In relation to our cognition of the world and of ourselves the conditions would be ideal if it were possible to accept nothing as data and regard everything as requiring definition and proof. In other words, it would be best to assume that we know nothing, and take this as our starting point.

Pragmatism: A New Name for Some Old Ways of Thinking by William James is a unique work in American philosophy. This collection of lectures James himself delivered at the dawn of the twentieth century has been a landmark in the development of the philosophical movement of pragmatism.

The Meaning of Truth is a prime example of the philosophical movement of pragmatism, which was developed in the United States in the 19th century. Written in 1907 by one of the most ardent proponents of pragmatism, William James, this collection of fifteen essays answers the critiques that pragmatist tradition had received.

James is Superb, brilliant. The reader, excellent. so WTF explains NO correlation between Jm's book chapters, Audible chapters, & clip notes' access/retrieval? it's complete incoherence! What a mess! Does no one examine the product's functionality before putting it up for sale? Exasperating!
