I have just received Ishmael and My Ishmael today, friend.
Also I ordered the complete works of Aristotle, both volumes. I figured it would be two books the size of Ishmael, but it was two huge fecking bibles
Also I received Dao De Jing- The book of the Way.
I'll look into Ishmael tonight before I go to sleep.

I just started reading again, Elephant Song, by Wilbur Smith. Not as good as When The Lion Feeds, but pretty decent. My hope is to move on to some more educational stuff, like what you've picked up.

It seems to me that Ishmael will stirr some **** up in my mind, so I look forward to it.
I've actually ordered "The three pillars of Zen" as well as "The Dancing Wu Li Masters: An Overview of the New Physics ".
The latter one because it popped up in that big **** thread
I can't stand reading scientific stuff, but this one apparently talks about the stuff in layman's terms and compares the science today (well, it was written in the 1980's) with some ancient believes/philosophies from the far east.
Sounds interesting.
I recommend "Power vs Force" to you. If you read it and try the stuff it'll blow your mind.
