Psychology

[close] A group for fellow aspiring literates. Mostly non-fiction. Basically what I’d like to do is create a community of not-necessarily-like-minded people from different backgrounds and talk about books. Political, theological, and philosophical discussion is encouraged. I’d prefer this not become another echo chamber (the Internet has plenty of those) so, please: feel free to disagree with one another.

[close] Our Shelf is a book club inspired by Our Shared Shelf! Every month there will be a new book for you to read, to discuss ,and to explore. People can ask questions about the book and discuss the plot, meaning and understand the book together. Sadly, I will be posting proper announcements one this group has reached 10 or more members. Everyone is free to join, if you'd like too!

[close] A community of people who want to engage with topics spanning across physics, mathematics, computation, biology, chaos and complexity theory, cognitive sciences (artificial intelligence, neuroscience, psychology), philosophy of science (and other areas at intersectional crossroads) at a more robust level than popular expositions that are intended for a broader audience. Every member ought to have the enthusiasm and will to work through difficult texts (and solving exercises, if needed!) This implies that the selection of books that are more formal in the treatment of their subject matter will be prioritized over those that shy away from complications, but doesn't necessarily exclude anything apriori. On the other hand, we want to pick up those having relevance in addressing fundamental questions rather than digging down the rabbit hole for extremely niche curiosities.
