The Intellectual Devotional
Revive Your Mind, Complete Your Education, and Roam Confidently with the Cultured Class
by David S. Kidder and Noah D. Oppenheim
Everyone has their own way of inspiring themselves to move forward through the doldrums of a boring job, a
lackluster social life, or a stressful transition through life in general. Kidder and Oppenheim have created a set
of daily "inspiration" tools for the intellectual person in us all. Filled with amazing facts from the worlds of
history (Monday), literature (Tuesday), visual arts (Wednesday), science (Thursday), music (Friday), philosophy
(Saturday), and religion (Sunday), The Intellectual Devotional gives the readers something new to refresh
their minds and feed their need for knowledge.
Being a total random knowledge buff, I jumped at the chance to try this book on for size, and I have to say
that it’s definitely worth more than its weight in gold. Kidder and Oppenheim pull some really interesting (and
in most cases not very well-known) information from all the major areas that affect us both academically and
socially. I love how they integrate such different areas of knowledge into a pattern that truly connects knowledge
to understanding. I strongly recommend this book for anyone whose brain is in need of a jump start in the morning
or just wants to learn more about the world around them and the history it holds. |
