Finally finished this, just in time for the end of the semester. One of my favourite compilation texts. Really enjoyed the material and the flow of the themes inside the book. My brain is so tired after all of these readings, but I feel like I took so much interesting knowledge away from these readings. Will definitely be coming back to these in the future.
