Nominate Books For April
I'll post a thread to discuss the book of the month sometime in early April.
The book must be non-fiction and must be related to philosophy.
Try to think not to just think of a book you personally would like to read, but instead try to think of a book that would best to read and discuss as a group.
When nominating a book, please post both the title and the author.
Also, even if your nomination does not win, please try to read whatever book does win and participate in the discussion. The point is to be able to have a group discussion about a book that we all recently read.
Thanks,
Scott

"Anarchy, State, and Utopia" Robert Nozick
With the upcoming election a little right-tilt or libertarianism wouldn't be out of place in the continual blare of left-wing media and some contrast to the two red diaper babies (or sympathizers of the same) running on the Democratic ticket.
Cheers,

Open Society and Its Enemies Vol. 1 by Karl Raimund Poppe
I've never personally read anything by Poppe but I've heard of his writing and just thought it would be something interesting to read for the political season. Just my input.
Book of the month
Both are very accessible, however I am not carrying a course load, I only need a little more motivation to actually re-read the two.
I have not read "Personal Ethics" so that would be fun too.
