"Never really aware, let alone ponder about various factor which shaped my 'tastes and aversion in epistemology'. Binary thinking of right/wrong stands on the belief that there is such thing as 'truth', which human can be observed 'objectively'. This books is a refreshing reminder that we are perhaps too confident about our 'objectivity'. Viewing such as 'bias' to be eliminated is also not wise. They're: connections." — Aug 21, 2013 08:55PM

"RIP Bellah, he died few weeks ago.

Got diverted following up several references that Bellah mentioned in the book, especially Barbara Herrnstein Smith's 'Scandalous Knowledge: Science, Truth, and The Human'.

Had I met Graeber & Bellah's work while I was in High School (perhaps with some1 who could guide me to their main idea), I would choose anthropology as my bachelor study." — Aug 21, 2013 08:19PM

"Its discussion on our relationship with time (biologically & culturally) complements Lee with Smolin's intriguing perspective on the reality of time in 'Time Reborn'.

This is why I like reading more than one books at once: it is more likely to find connections between various camps of ideas." — Jul 29, 2013 08:27PM
