SUMMARY:Philosophy Study Group
DESCRIPTION:We are starting a new book\, Science Set Free: 10 Paths to New Discovery (2013)\, by Rupert Sheldrake. This book was originally published in Great Britain in 2012 under the title\, The Science Delusion. For the 11th we’ll read through chapter 3. It can be had for under $15 in paperback and for about $12 as an ebook. \nSheldrake has a bit of a reputation as a maverick\, and here he attempts to redirect how the scientific community thinks of reality\, freeing them\, he claims\, from a stifling materialist approach to something more broad and open. Is the scientific community stifled? Is materialism moribund\, as he says? The MISF Philosophy Study Group is certainly not\, and we plan on doing some very unmoribundy things as we discuss this book.

SUMMARY:History Study Group
DESCRIPTION:We will start reading Midnight’s Furies: the Deadly Legacy of India’s Partition (2015) by Nisid Hajari. This book\, selected as one of the books of the year by NPR\, is available in paperback for less than $15 (Amazon has it listed for $6.50) and as an ebook for $10. We will discuss the first half of the book (through chapter 5) on the 18th. While reading it will probably not put one in a good mood\, it should shed some light on Pakistan today and the current difficulties the U.S. has in dealing with it. Should be some fun reading. Bonne lecture.
