I've had the little idea of starting such a club for a while now, but never could muster the enthusiasm to gather the people. Anyway, I know more people online who would be interested in this, than people currently living near me, so this seems like the way to go. Maybe we could do it once a month - pick a book by consensus, and open a thread on it on a predetermined date. Anyone interested?

Anyway, here's some ideas for stuff to read. If anything piques your interest, lemme know. Also, suggest your own stuff.

The Structure of Scientific Revolutions - Thomas Kuhn
Beyond Good and Evil - Friedrich Nietszche
Our Posthuman Future - Francis Fukuyama
How to Do Things with Words - JL Austin
Simulacra and Simulation - Jean Baudrillard
The Blank Slate - Steven Pinker
Consilience - EO Wilson
Three Dialogues - George Berkeley
