Entry Category: Inspirational

Books are evaluated on a scale of 1 to 5, with 1 meaning “needs improvement” and 5 meaning “outstanding”. This scale is strictly to provide a point of reference, it is not a cumulative score and does not reflect ranking. Our system only recognizes numerals during this portion of logging evaluations. As a result, a “0” is used in place of “N/A” when the particular portion of the evaluation simply does not apply to the particular entry, based on the entry genre. For example, a book of poetry or a how to manual, would not necessarily have a “Plot and Story Appeal and may therefore receive a “0”.

Judge’s Commentary*:
PHILOSOPHY OF FEARISM, by Desh Subba. This book explains the author’s new philosophy of fear as director of life and civilization and gives us a new dimension to look at life and the world. A Foreword to the book explains briefly the author’s seminal thinking in forming this new philosophy and sets up the rationalization for the book itself. The subject is fascinating even to those untrained in the study of philosophy because of the pervasive existence of fear in our lives. The first chapter sets forth twenty-one definitions of fear that are easy to read and understand even though the concept can be difficult. For instance, the first definition is: 1. Fear is a beautiful consciousness. This statement might be hard to accept without the explanations in the rest of the book. I found the topic fascinating, but want to educate the prospective readers that it is set up in text-book style and not as general non-fiction. If exploring new concepts and discussing philosophy bring you pleasure, then this is the book for you. However, if as a reader, you prefer lighter books, than you might not be as well pleased. Also, it is worth noting that the book is a translation from another language, and sometimes the translation lacks in clarity.
