Our other priorities today, besides finishing Ricard and taking the exam: 1. regroup (and resolve to give the group concept a fair trial in October). 2. Vote for our November read. Here are the nominees, based on last class:
- Exploring Happiness (Bok)
- Generosity (Powers)
- Geography of Bliss (Weiner)
- Selected essays culled from the Internet (Aristotle, Montaigne, James...)
- How to See Yourself as You Really Are OR For the Benefit of All Beings OR Art of Happiness (Dalai Lama)
- The Monk and the Philosopher (Ricard & Revel)
- Existentialism and Human Emotions (Sartre)
- Flow (Csikszentihalyi)
- The Alchemist (Coelho)
- Surprised by Joy (Lewis)
With so many nominees, there may be no clear winner (with at least half the votes) on 1st ballot. If so, we'll have a 2d-ballot runoff between the top two or three choices. If a tie-breaker is then still needed, I'll cast it.
It's good to be King.
