For a single list that shows all the books, movies, blogs and other media that Yi-Tan Participants recommend, see the Yi-Tan Bibliography. This page is for one perspective on all those works -- mine.
Here I'll point to the works that have most influenced my thinking. When possible, the descriptions of each work will include some context, as well as the major points derived from those works. Early on, though, the descriptions may be a bit thin, for which I apologize. -- Jerry
