9780300125344What’s going on? Pretty busy with life right now. Cleaning up the house for Easter.

51fFtmA2D5L._SX258_BO1,204,203,200_I checked out The Anglo-Saxon World, and to my confusion it turns out be a “coffee table book.” Its scholarly standards are high, but the illustrations and the nature of the paper makes it heavy and cumbersome. I have no idea what the motivations here were, though I suppose the authors were aiming at a non-academic audience.

Also, Derek Roff’s Modeling Evolution: An Introduction to Numerical Methods arrived in the mail. It is nota coffee table book.

Update: Public service announcement. If your name is not Ron Unz and you are telling me what I should and shouldn’t post about, you will probably be banned from commenting. I’ve pretty much ignored reader advice in this area for 15 years (here’s looking at you Ikram) and will continue to do so.
