		<description><![CDATA[I have just finished reading Graham Farmelo&#8217;s &#8220;The Strangest Man, The Hidden Life of Paul Dirac, Mystic of the Atom.&#8221; It was a very enjoyable book for me. I read Schrodinger, Heisenberg and Bohr&#8217;s biographies in the early 1009&#8242;s &#8211; almost 20 years ago now. And I read Einstein and Feynman when I was younger [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Last week&#8217;s New Yorker magazine had an article on the financial crisis. There were two themes in the article. One was a comparison of 20th Century finance to 20th Century art &#8211; Stravinsky&#8217;s The Rite of Spring to Fischer Black and Myron Scholes&#8217;s paper on &#8220;The Pricing of Options and Corporate Liabilities&#8220;. The other theme [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[N borrowed a great little book from the newly renovated Houston Public Library. It is called &#8220;Chickens May Not Cross the Road and Other Crazy (But True) Laws&#8220;. It is a picture book listing out bizarre, current or historical laws from the state law books in the US. Most of the laws make you wonder [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I ran across a marvelous little book at the Half Price Books store in Rice Village &#8211; Ezra Pound&#8217;s &#8216;ABC of Reading&#8216;. It is a short book (about 200 pages) written in 1934 (prior to his days in Italy) that expands his earlier (1933) essay on &#8217;Row to Read.&#8216; Pound discusses how to read and enjoy poetry.

		<description><![CDATA[I read a fun little book called Queen Elizabeth and the Spanish Armada. I had bought it for $1 at a library used book sale near my house last year. It is a simply written history of Elizabeth I from her birth during the reign of her father Henry VIII till her death. The author, Frances Winwar, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I have recently read Malcolm Gladwell&#8216;s book The Tipping Point. It is a very interesting book, and one of the more engaging ones I have read recently. I find both the topics of epidemics and networks independently very interesting. Seeing them combined in this way was thought provoking. I am also a fan of his writings in The New [...]]]></description>
