 I wanted to use Martin Buber's "Good and Evil" but I couldn't find it. Oh well.

hmm? I seem to remember Spinoza as the system builder and ridgid logic (almost Euclid like) of his Ethics. But I've only read secondary lit. so I don't know. To convey subleties I'd suggest........ Mill, Kant (OK, maybe not in ethics), McDowell (if you can read him), Wittgenstein, and of corse John Duns Scotus....

Well, I don't get it. Is he reading the book to figure out how to play chess? Also, the highlight on his head and the shadow behind it bother me. Sorry, just doesn't work for me.

Interesting. Too bad you weren't playing chess with a black guy, that would have been cool :)

" Reduce the world to a palette of grays, and focus on light, shade, line, texture and form. ' - Four specifics, not sure i see any of them.

Jeeves' favorite philosopher. But I don't see the connection between the book and the chess set.
