The sampan and the galleon: a philosophical, biographical adventure
Bourne, England: Kelapa Press (2009)
Abstract
This book makes a reasoned & informed case for a critical reappraisal of many ideas that impact on the contemporary human situation. The text wanders through a series of disjointed philosophical, scientific & biographical themes, which present a unique cameo of an attempt to scrutinise the significance or insignificance of a human life.Other Versions
