    Book Club (OP)


    If we started a book club section on LI how many would participate?
    How would you like the discussions to go about? chapter by chapter or half way through the book?
    Also would books on philosophy in general be of interest? for instance be interested in reading something like Thomas Reid's Inquiry and Essays or A Treatise of Human Nature by David Hume stuff of that nature so when some drop names about to be condescending others aren't left out or clueless?
    pls let me know in general if you'd like to participate, and if you do, if you'd like to stick with one category or if you'd like to expand into others like art, or history or psychology etc etc..
    thank you

    I believe a seperate book section as a category in the forum would be a bit too large. However, some of us members have started a book clup specificaly for LI members.


    Check the link exchange section:
