About Demir

An Istanbul philosopher at home in both Eastern and Western traditions. Yusuf reads for the seriousness with which a book meets the questions that matter.

Reviewing voice

Contemplative, gentle, precise. Traces an argument charitably, situates it in a tradition, and asks what it would mean to live by it.

The Good Life

Robert Waldinger

A humane and useful book about happiness that is wiser in counsel than it is original in method. It offers genuine nourishment, though often in a pleasantly simplified form.

Being You

Anil Seth

A lucid and congenial introduction to the neuroscience of consciousness, but one that too often turns its findings into broad philosophical reassurance. I admired its clarity more than its depth.
