    Gene, thanks for mentioning this.

    I'm ashamed to admit I wasn't aware of your book. Now, of course, I've found it at mises.org.

    Thanks, and happy holidays!

    (I also thank buy wow gold for the spam - thanks to the email follow-up feature - that reminded me I hadn't checked out your blog for a while.)

    That's great. When can we expect a review of Puck in the NYT?

While that description is not entirely inaccurate, I must say that a lot of these people who today call themselves conservative give me the heebie-jeebies.

"Pre-Galilean" Foolishness

 I am currently reading The Master and His Emissary , which appears to be an excellent book. ("Appears" because I don't know the neuroscience literature well enough to say for sure, yet.) But then on page 186 I find: "Asking cognition, however, to give a perspective on the relationship between cognition and affect is like asking astronomer in the pre-Galilean geocentric world, whether, in his opinion, the sun moves round the earth of the earth around the sun. To ask a question alone would be enough to label one as mad." OK, this is garbage. First of all, it should be pre-Copernican, not pre-Galilean.

It had generally been considered wrong, but not "mad." (And wrong for scientific reasons: Why, for instance, did we not observe stellar parallax?) And when Copernicus propose...
