Good information, but this was a really annoying book, based on the self-perceived cleverness of author Michael Lewis. Color commentary with flair is a thing in sports, but I think he falls in love with it a little too much, resulting in some strange ...more |

It takes some work -- going through linguistics, geology, archeology, and other disciplines -- but this is really a fascinating book. One interesting thing for me was that the back photos were not of Bittlestone, the author, but of two of the people i ...more |

The title may hint that it's a book of collective nouns for animals, but it is also a detective story. It's okay. ...more |

I think some of the cat communication is oversimplified (and there is no slow blink!), but the focus is really more on emotional regulation for the child... how to handle those same emotions. In addition, there is some interesting information on lang ...more |

Lots of food-centered books will give a recipe, which this does not, possibly due to being a board book. As it is, it is an easy rhyme, has a sense of fun and family, and could be a good introduction to Korean food. |

“Sometimes you have to kind of die inside in order to rise from your own ashes and believe in yourself and love yourself to become a new person.”

“Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.”

“Look you wanna know the truth? I don’t really care about the
stats or the cup or the trophy or anything like that. In fact even the games aren’t that important to me. What matters to me is the perfect throw, making the perfect catch, the perfect step and block. Perfection. That's what it's about. It's those moments. When you can feel the perfection of creation. The beauty the physics you know the wonder of mathematics. The elations of action and reaction and that is the kind of perfection that I want to be connected to.”

“In an era when metaphysical and existential certainties are in a state of crisis, when people are being uprooted and alienated and are losing their sense of what this world means, this ideology inevitably has a certain hypnotic charm. To wandering humankind it offers an immediately available home: all one has to do is accept it, and suddenly everything becomes clear once more, life takes on new meaning, and all mysteries, unanswered questions, anxiety, and loneliness vanish. Of course, one pays dearly for this low-rent home: the price is abdication of one’ s own reason, conscience, and responsibility, for an essential aspect of this ideology is the consignment of reason and conscience to a higher authority. The principle involved here is that the center of power is identical with the center of truth.”

“If the main pillar of the system is living a lie, then it is not surprising that the fundamental threat to it is living the truth. This is why it must be suppressed more severely than anything else.”
