Re: Books I\'d like to see written
[ QUOTE ]
I'd ideally like to write a book about philosophy; what it is, why it's important for every individual and society as a whole, and how to approach it. For your average American dude/dudette and everybody else.
I've been considering this for 2 years. I originally wanted to write about the art of critical thinking, but it's kind of evolved since then. Fiction or non-fiction, I've got ideas about how to frame it as either.
What modern books exist like this already?

Don't know of very general books like this, but "The End of Faith" by Sam Harris is essentially like this (although only for a small sphere of philosophy) and it is pretty good.
