Potty Mouthed Philosophers

First there was Bullshit, now Mindfucking.

Mindfucking: A Critique of Mental Manipulation
By Colin McGinn


Actually, looks interesting and McGinn is usually a relatively clear writer, so it's been added to my wishlist.

I'm with Chris on this! If it's good, you could talk about it at TOC next year!

Oh its so great when you read a sentence that makes you giggle, but this surpriced me to a laugh out loud.

I haven't across any published reviews yet, but I haven't been looking either. Let me know if you find any.
