I've already read this twice, it's just that good!
I thoroughly enjoyed this read.I have found many new adventures that Tom and Huck would never attempt in this book.If this book could be described in only one word, I'd have to call it "Country."I say that not referring to the genre of music, but location.This book is of the country and for all who wish to have a better understanding of rural country.Tall tales, overalls and test cats abound in this novel.I hope everyone will appreciate the stories in this book as much as I have.

A brilliant, inspiring way out of self-absorption
It's such a cliche to say this, but this book has changed my life.Not only does it thoroughly penetrate the history of existential and phenomenological inquiry (Husserl and Heidegger, among others), it brings us to a more evolved way of philosophical thinking and intuition. If you're anything like me, your passionate quest for the meaning of existence has also isolated you at times.If you haven't come to this realization, this book will demonstrate how this isolation may have been re-enforced by the brilliant insights of the greatest thinkers, who were also oftentimes very lonely people.Without excluding these insights, and indeed incorporating them into a broader context, Sadler reveals that the search for knowledgeable being is incomplete without the interpenetration of one's self with another, in what we call love. Not only is "love" not merely a gushy romantic idea without practical relevance, it proves to be the center of our being, and the essence of any knowledge whatsoever. If you want a more "sober" viewpoint, it's as easy as this - before we are individuals, we are connected. If you think you're too "rational" for this type of inquiry, i beg you to reconsider - this is as rational, if not more so, than anything leading up to it. If you have the gift of a productive rational mind, the reception of this book (if you have not already been influenced by similar ideas) is a profound good for you and society. This book has helped me see outside of my own little box, helped my work, and it sits on my desk beside a small few others that have deeply impacted me.Thanks for your consideration. ... Read more
