Book Review (Freedom to Explore)

Buy it at Koorong

Michael’s book has 26 two-page chapters with each one covering a different letter. Each letter has a well-crafted story with a provocative point to make.

Some of the chapter titles are ‘C is for Crap’, ‘E is for Erotic’ , ‘L is for Lager’ and ‘Y is for Yahoodotcom’.

A cool quote, there are heaps, is from ‘X is fro Xenophilia’

Jewish theologian Martin Buber once said, “Life is meeting.” By this me meant that we are fully and authentically alive when we meet others. To meet, in his thinking, is to so engage another human being so as to see in them at least as much complexity and beauty as you would like others to see in you.
