A Philosophy of Fear

I love philosophy stuff. But, this book of "fear" is really not my cup of tea. It is actually a simple book. A total of 192 pages tell the whole story. But, to explain philosophy in such a thin book required excellent writing skill. In this case, I humbly think the author failed big time...

First of all, the author keeps on providing us with tons of references. As an amateur in this field, it is rather hard for me to digest. Secondly, the author did try his best in explaining every possible points in the books. However, I personally think that the contents are too general. At the end, nothing inspired me; and I am still the guy with lots of fear (LOL). Basically, the whole book only delivers one simple fact: We are living in a much better world these days. Hence, fear should not exist at all. Well, that is the only thing I get from this book.

For a full rating of 10, I am going to rate this book at 1/10. I hate books with tons of references. It just shows that the author got zero ideas on what he or she want to presents. In fact, this book failed to impress me except the last chapter. The last chapter at least tells me what the intention of this book is... But, to categorize it as "philosophy", I seriously doubt it. Time to move on... Ding, ding, ding...
