Good books on political science?

2018-03-13 16:17:51 UTC  

Unfortunately not a subject I've gotten to yet but Plato's Republic has some interesting parts on systems of govt. Are you interested in any particular sphere of poli sci?

2018-03-13 16:19:45 UTC  

Check out Nick's book list if you haven't already, haven't started any but just picked up Krauthammer's Things That Matter and Caro's The Path to Power

2018-03-13 18:30:47 UTC  

I'd just like an intro, I don't know shit. I couldn't even tell you what I'm interested in. I'll check those out.

2018-03-14 04:29:39 UTC  

Yea, Mastery was great. I couldn't put it down. Had me totally focused on all the things I wanted to do for probably a few months after. I should re-read it.

@🎭🎵 Have you actually read it? I made it through one or two chapters and was bored to death by it.

Not pictured is C.S. Lewis' Mere Christianity which I believe he said is a really good introductory book.

2018-03-15 17:55:35 UTC  

Gonna be the first I check out once I finish what I'm currently reading.

2018-03-15 19:08:37 UTC  

Summa is rough

2018-03-16 00:46:17 UTC  

@Polybius Mere Christianity is great, it has the best explanation of the moral argument for God that I've seen

2018-03-16 00:46:31 UTC  

And CS Lewis' writing is beautiful

2018-03-16 05:00:14 UTC
