Become What You Are by Alan Watts

5.0

A collection of short essays and excerpts form Alan Watts, stand-up philosopher and Western spokesperson for Buddhism as a philosophy. The articles are his trademark mix of cool logic, wry observation, and eye and heart-opening insights. As always, his take can be a little dated (the chauvinism and privilege of a white man in the seventies) but the insights are timeless and he always makes me think. A worthwhile and very brief read that can be chunked out over several evenings, one article at a time.
