Book Reviews

  • Chapter 7 of "Alphabet and the Goddess" is an illuminating read. It covers the transformation of Egyptian hieroglyphics as well as the evolution of religion. https://t.co/BWSvQNThNTLink to Tweet
  • @ETagliazucchi @KordingLab @WiringTheBrain @tyrell_turing Another book that I found interesting is Shlain's Goddess and the Alphabet. This is more about history but it revolves also around the same dichotomy: https://t.co/IBybi6SbauLink to Tweet
  • @personalitygeni Yes, thoughts do not require an expression in language. The book 'The Alphabet and the Goddess' examines the historical competition between language and empathy.Link to Tweet
