Thinking about Physics
It is a good book, however the great problem for me is the way it tries to connect Arendt's views with new issues as a way of giving the answer to why does Arendt Matters, instead of actually allowing the reader to realize why Arendt is important. I think that the best part of the 3 is the last one on The Life of the mind, and is precisely because the author goes directly to Arendt and her experience as her assistant instead of trying to link her thought with current events.
The part on Human Condition is good, but looses to much pages in the error mentioned above. It would be better in my opinion, to give a clear account about action, labor and work, and then gi to the last chapter of the human condition (where Arendt's was more "contemporary').
Same thing happens with the first part on Origins of Totalitarianisn. However the book have some hidden pearls also. Finally I think that maybe the book needed another chapter for the discussiin of 'On the Revolution'.
