Summer reading list
What are you hoping to
read this summer? We posed this question to the Century staff, a group of people with diverse tastes
and interests. Along with commenting on our choices, feel free to post your own
in the comments. --Ed.
Musicophilia, by Oliver
Sacks. This promises to be a fascinating, in-depth account of the
physiological/psychological/emotive effects music has on us.
Christianity,
Democracy, and the Radical Ordinary, by Stanley Hauerwas and Romand Coles. A
constructive conversation between Hauerwas and political theorist Coles on the
relationship between Christianity and democracy. Particularly relevant as an
extension of my studies with Franklin Gamwell.
