Mark Heyman stated January 18th :
Platt's example of Goldberg's books is unconvincing. These books
offer nothing to corroborate the author's opinions: no notes, no
internal memos, no references, nothing even approximating legitimate
research. There is no way to verify that his opinions are anything
more than a vague web of anecdotes, hearsay, and unsupported
generalizations stemming from some personal ax-grinding.
Platt Holden replied January 18th:
I guess this puts Zen and Lila out of bounds as nowhere do I find in them
notes, internal memos, references, or anything even approximating
legitimate research.
Ant McWatt notes:
Platt,
You find lots of texts cited in ZMM and LILA. I think I’ve checked out each
and every one and none of them are fictional.
Moreover, you have the “Guidebook to ZMM” (by two philosophy lecturers
packed full of reviews, notes, correspondence and overviews), my PhD thesis
and Dan Glover’s “Lila’s Child” which provide much “legitimate research” to
the background of ZMM and LILA.
Is there a Guidebook on Goldberg’s work or even a University thesis that
treats it in a positive light? If so, let’s have the references so we can
check them out!
Best wishes,
Anthony
