From AJ, I found out about a book by Scott Adams of Dilbert fame. The book is called God’s Debris, and is 132 pages long. Even though the hardback version is available in stores, Scott has made a free PDF version available online.
This is not anything like Scott’s other work, which as far as I know, are all cartoons. This alone really led me to download the PDF and start into it. I had no idea what to expect, and was pleasantly surprised. The book is a mind-bender in the tradition of books like Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance or Ishmael , without the depth or length of either of those two. Adams introduces the book as a “thought experiment”, and it certainly is that.
If you haven’t read it yet, go get it! If you have, then stay tuned for my thoughts on the book (coming soon…).
