Cosmic Trigger 2: Down to Earth

This may be heresy, but I think I enjoyed CT2 slightly more than the first one. Like the title suggests, the sequel is indeed more down to earth and discusses RAW's childhood, his college years, his years in Ireland - essentially, many of his other life experiences that were more grounded than the famous way out stuff he recounts in CT1.Crucially, I think I'd recommend CT2 more readily to the average reader than CT1 because it covers more universal themes that don't push the skepticism too hard while still managing to get you thinking deeply about your life and the world around you. When I first picked up CT2 and flicked through it, I thought the short chapters and era-jumping would be annoying but it actually makes for a very readable and unified whole, helping the reader see how all these different meditations on reality apply to every stage in our life.Ultimately, whatever RAW book you read, his ever-present themes of optimism in the future and not taking belief systems seriously are always a wonderful pleasure to drink in.
