On: The Milky Way according to Anton Pannekoek

[lastgeniusua]

what are you reading now if you read Pannekoek when you were younger, I wonder?

[cassepipe → lastgeniusua]

Robert Brenner and Robert Sapolsky right now. Still interested about systems, especially in how capitalism works (or does not work depending on where you stand) and how it came about. But also a little bit more interested in how human work (as biological systems). Thanks for asking.

Have you read the Dialectical Biologist by Levins and Lewontin? I’ve been thinking of picking it up (no real biology knowledge personally).

the "doesn't" camp, of course. Brenner in the context of the larger debates or on his own? Have you read Jairus Banaji?

What's particularly interesting in Sapolsky's work for you?
