More evidence that I was heading in a post-critique direction from this review in Radical Philosophy. Not surprisingly Soper wasn't too keen.
In particular, I'm bad for suggesting Tibetans would make good space pilots. You can't win against this sort of attitude: if I had said something about how perfectly embedded they were in their lifeworld, and should never be disturbed, I would also be accused of imperialistic designs.
Mind you I'm honored Soper read it at all.
It's behind a pay wall. The irony of a journal called "Radical Philosophy" preventing people from reading their material unless they have the do-re-mi to pay for it is disheartening.
ReplyDeleteHow radical could it be?
I think it might be one of those products whose purpose is that we assume an infinite distance towards reality.
