Review # 1 was written on 2011-10-19 00:00:00 Thomas Hlavinka I love Kierkegaard and was thrilled when this book came out. Despite my enthusiasm and my ability to plow through the driest of writing, this book proved too much for the man. For me this was impossible to finish even with my passion for Kierkegaard.

Review # 2 was written on 2020-07-14 00:00:00 Michael Vaucher "It is better to be a human being dissatisfied than a pig satisfied; better to be Socrates dissatisfied than a fool satisfied. And if the fool, or the pig, is of a different opinion, it is only because they only know their own side of the question." - John Stuart Mill, Utilitarianism I remember reading bits of Mill's Utilitarianism during a course of political philosophy and public policy when I was in college (my major almost 20 years ago was public policy). I have always been attracted to the basics of Mill's Utilitarianism and William's Pragmatism. Thus, may I disagree with Ferris Bueller. I do believe in isms. Anyway, I hadn't touched Mill in quite awhile (6 years) and figured it was probably time to dust off some of those foundational Western political philosophers. Who knows, we all may be rebuilding a Republic soon.
