Just back from a great week on Iona, and very much looking forward to ‘Other‘ being released on Monday. Get your local bookseller to order it and support them if you can. Amazon have already dispatched any pre-ordered copies, and it’d be great if people could make some noise and get the word out there if you like what you read.
Some good people already have liked what they’ve read, and I’ll be posting some endorsements here over the next few days, kicking off with the wonderful thinker Maggi Dawn, who said:
Startling, heart-warming and thought-provoking, Other opens up old themes for a new generation. There are plenty of books that tell you what you expect to hear. This, I’m happy to say, is not one of them. Drawing on a mixture of sources from philosophy, history of science, sociology and theology as well as lots of personal anecdotes, Other explores the challenge of understanding the self, as well as God and other people.
She also has a new book out later on in June which looks fantastic. Check back here Monday for more news of the release, plus a free talk I did last week on the book to download / listen to… and get yourself along to Apple on Wednesday to raise a glass in celebration of the launch. If you say the right thing, you could land yourself a free pint, or free copy of the book! (See end of previous post for details)

Mine came through on amazon pre-order the other day, really enjoying it so far! Thanks
Anxious to get my hands on a copy. When will it be available in the States?
Working very hard on securing a US release… Will let people know here when we have news. Otherwise, it’s an import I’m afraid!
