The World Beyond Your Head
The World Beyond Your Head: On Becoming an Individual in an Age of Distraction by Matthew Crawford
His website.
National Review review
Articles at The New Atlantis
I am sympathetic to the book's thesis but I think it will be bad history, focusing on genealogy or intellectual history too much, rather than the social and cultural causes (the rise of the modern nation-state and industrial capitalism) that is the background of certain thinkers.

On the Question of Mass Stipends
I remember this being argued at the seminary, with one seminarian holding that the problem of Mass stipends was an argument against concelebration. Apparently, it isn't. Fr. Hunwicke: Benedict XIV on Concelebration and Money and Concelebration.

Nit-Picking
Guest-note: Did one of the main Vatican II documents distort the Words of Our Lord in the Gospel?
John Lamont: "For non-Latinists, this claim (it is a complete sentence in the conciliar document) can be translated as follows: 'For love of God and of neighbour is the first and greatest commandment'. No Latin is needed to realise that this is a flat contradiction of the teaching of Christ. There is a deliberate allusion in Gaudium et Spes 24 to the wording of the divine teaching it is contradicting, as can be seen from looking at the Vulgate text of that teaching..."
The second can be considered a part of first, in so far as the first provides the justification and the motivation for the second.
St. Thomas Aquinas, Summa Theologiae II II 44, 2:
"The love of God is the end to which the love of our neighbor is directed. Therefore it behooved us to receive precepts not only of the love of God but also of the love of our neighbor, on account of those who are less intelligent, who do not easily understand that one of these precepts is included in the other."
See also II II 25, 1.
An embarrassing critique. Latin traditionalists really should be more circumspect, lest their zeal to conserve what they think to be Catholic teaching leads them to errors such as this. (A poor foundation in theology? Even a good conservative Thomist, or a good Thomist of "strict observance" would no better than to offer this.)

Contemplation as "Silence"
Seeking Silence: An Interview with Kevin M. Johnson - The Inner Room (FB)
BC
An emphasis on nous; no such thing as Catholic silence or Catholic contemplation? What about Christian contemplation? There is no real mysticism without Christ. Too much of an "interfaith," interdisciplinary approach to contemplation that tries to engage modern Western philosophy as well? I prefer explanations by Fr. Bouyer, Archimandrite Gabriel Bunge or Fr. Jean Corbon. Contemplation is not the same as meditation, though it may make use of it.
