Reading in 2010: The Other
The Other is my fourth book so far and it was a very good read. Short, it covers some of the author's speeches on his encounter with The Other as his career as a travel journalist, but most of the lectures are about the philosophical approach to meeting those different from ourselves. Ryszard witnessed an interesting time and the growth of a more multicultural world and the developing globalism, with the shadow of colonization and the power shifts happening. Anyone who followed my journal and saw all the recent For Prosperity quotes, well this is the book where they came from.
It's short, less than 200 pages, and I'd recommend it to anyone interested in those topics. This was a good book because it's short but clear and mentions other schools of thoughts so I could research more if I wanted. This made me want to read his other book too.
4/50
