I like to track my favorite web sites in Links. May as well track the books I have read too.
The Joy of Abstraction: An Exploration of Math, Category Theory, and Life. Eugenia Cheng
Beautiful Solutions: A Toolbox for Liberation. Edited by Elandria Williams, Rachel Plattus, Eli Feghali and Nathan Schneider. It was referenced on a recent Laura Flanders show. The People’s Network for Land & Liberation: Finding Practical Paths To Economic & Social Justice. Looking for the next chapter in life,sustainable communities seems to be a good path.
The Infinities, John Banville. While I do not think of this as a science fiction novel, it does qualify by definition.
What I talk About When I talk about Running, Haraki Murakami. So I heard about this book from my wife. I do not understand how this appeared on her radar.
Ishmael, Daniel Quinn. So you have to get with a telepathic understanding between a very skeptical man and a gorilla. I am not asking you to believe but simply to understand the premise. Now I ask you to entertain the the outcome of the dialog.
The Way Home, Mark Boyle. Living without modern technology. Building a home, finding a life with seasons.
On quality : an inquiry into excellence. Robert M. Pirsig, Edited by Wendy K. Pirsig.
A Walking Life. Reclaiming Our Health and Our Freedom — One Step at a Time. Antonia Malchik. Explores the how and why of walking, and why we do not walk enough anymore. Seems to be mostly a North American problem.
Thinking in Systems A Primer, Donella H. Meadows
Ways of Being. Animals, Plants, Machines: The Search for a Planetary Intelligence. James Bridle
The Web of Meaning. Integrating science and traditional wisdom to find our place in the universe. Jeremy Lent
How to Bake π: An Edible Exploration of the Mathematics of Mathematics. Eugenia Cheng
The World Ending Fire. The Essential Wendell Berry
Douglas Adams The Ends of the Earth, Arvind Ethan David
