Reviews

The Intelligence of Evil presents us with a fascinating mental journey outside of what we have come to call “reality”, and makes us question the fundamental dichotomy between what is good and what is evil. It is highly recommendable for people with an interest in philosophy, or a lot of time on their hands.
