I just got done reading A Natural History of Rape: Biological Bases of Sexual Coercion By RANDY THORNHILL and CRAIG T. PALMER

I also got done reading Analytical Solipsism By William Todd.

Currently I'm reading Rationalized Epistemology: Taking Solipsism Seriously By Albert A. Johnstone, Hell By Henri Barbusse,Permutation City By Greg Egan.

( I read many books simultaneously at the same time. I have a short attention span.)

I know there is alot of people here who likes Friedrich Nietzsche as much as I do.

I was reading a book a couple of months ago called Hammer Of The Gods By Friedrich Nietzsche himself translated by Stephen Metcalf that has alot of his unpublished writings and short sketches.

( Some might want to check into that.) Smile

The Ego And His Own By Max Stirner ( Real name- Johann Kaspar Schmidt ) is a wonderful book.
