Given my interest in education, his Some Thoughts Concerning Education stood out for reading, and I finally picked it up as one of my inter-Wheel of Time reads, fully expecting it to be as insightful on the topic of education as Two Treatises were on governance. Instead, I barely convinced myself it was worthwhile to finish skimming it.
The Zombie Apocalypse Guide to 3D Printing Review
The Zombie Apocalypse Guide to 3D Printing is a basic book in many respects, but it is packed with practical details, and it’s the sort of book that will sit by my home lab setup so that I can reference it when I’m doing actual design and 3D printing. If you’re looking for a place to start with 3D printing, this would be a solid option with 98% infill.
A Crown of Swords Review
While being manipulative has a negative, scheming connotation, it is an inevitable byproduct of how we interact with each other and the diverse goals we all have in those interactions.
Streams of Living Water Review
Any time Foster is at risk of plunging deeply into knotty philosophical or theological issues, he deploys an exclamation that amounts to avoiding deeper thinking by repeating an emphatic “God is great!” as a solution and answer to any further questions.
Genesis Review
It probably sounds terribly sacrilegious, but the God in Genesis feels like a God who is sort of figuring things out as He goes.
Prose Edda Review
At a glance, the Edda is not so different from other mythologies, like those of Greece, Egypt, Sumer, and so forth. A glancing view, though, is really a way of looking at a subject through the lens of a previous understanding, rather than acquiring a new and independent understanding of the subject.
Under Alien Skies Review
Under Alien Skies should have been a picture book, but that doesn’t mean it fails in its mission as-is.
Why We Are Restless Review
Reading it will affirm your notions that there is more to life than a quest for immanent contentment and universal, unmitigated approbation, but it may well leave you feeling more restless than when you began.
The Dragon Waiting Review
A few, core, what-if questions form the foundation of Ford’s genre-blending The Dragon Waiting. The most important is what if Byzantium adopted a policy of religious toleration instead of Christianity? Oh, and what if there were vampires and wizards, too?
Destiny of the Republic Review
Even putting aside my desire for it to be a more comprehensive biography of Garfield, Destiny of the Republic is a somewhat confused book that never really lives up to its grandiose title, nor successfully makes its main argument.
