Book Description

May 8, 2008
This is a book about a man that decides to live differently. But when he decides to live differently he notices that there a million ways to live. He sees the lives of the rich, blue-collar, poor, the drunk and charitable. He concludes by making his own version of life.

In Treatise, Noah Cicero says that we cannot blame a rich person for wanting more, for outsourcing, or starting a war to get oil because we ALL want more. That inside the human mind is nothingness, and because it is nothingness, we are always lacking, therefore always desiring more. Sartre explained it like that, and Nietzsche explained it as The-Will-to-Power.

5.0 out of 5 stars Review by Sam Pink, April 23, 2011
This review is from: Treatise (Paperback)
i bought this book when it first came out. it is really good. like his other novels, it details a person living in youngstown trying to empirically work through a lot of philosophical/political problems. the main character quits his lucrative job and "goes down a class." i think this is a really important idea. it is the exact opposite of the american ideal. it says, "just take what you need and be happy with it." it also goes directly against other american ideals, like loving your parents regardless. if more people read this book and followed its ideas, there were be more happiness.

I really enjoyed this book quite a bit...

It's a very quick read and contains a lot of information and ideas but in my opinion it never feels arduous or boring.

This review is from: Treatise (Paperback)
Noah Cicero needs an editor.
Also, he is brilliant and should be read by more people than he is.
