This little classic SF right here. It feels like a non-fiction book written as a narrative because it's basically a condensed "future history" of man over the next several billion years.

Just started An Inquiry into the Good by Kitaro Nishida, so far it's already good, I love how in the first chapter he already goes against most of the perspectives of positivist philosophy and contemporary psychology... there's something about putting "judgments" and "meaning" on a lower level than "pure experience" that really strikes a chord with me. |

So far it's ok, but I'm not sure if I'll stick around for the entire series...(10 books altogether).
