  1. Thanks to the posters for their interest in my views on Peikoff. I've done a short review of The DIM Hypothesis: http://mises.org/daily/6215/The-DIM-Hypothesis When I said that my opinion of Ominous Parallels had gone up, I meant only that I'd wouldn't have been quite as negative if I were to do a review now. But I still think my criticisms were right. In particular, Peikoff's understanding of Kant is wildly off, a problem present in the new book as well. One way to see this is to ask yourself, "Given the way Peikoff presents Kant, how could any sane person have believed such things?" He calls Kant a great philosopher, but it's impossible to see why he is one from Peikoff's account.
