Anti-Atrophy

My Christmas break reading list:
  • Honest Signals: How They Shape Our World, by Alex Pentland
  • Rock, Paper, Scissors: Game Theory in Everyday Life, by Len Fisher
  • 13 Things That Don't Make Sense, by Michael Brooks
  • Outliers: The Story Of Success, by Malcolm Gladwell
  • Snow Crash, by Neal Stephenson
That's all the fun reading I'll have time for. I also need to re-read, cover-to-cover, the textbooks for all four classes I'm teaching in the Spring. But since we're expecting a pretty big winter storm tomorrow, with a second salvo about Wednesday, I may get a lot of good days to stay inside and just read the day away.

It's times like this I wish I'd spent the extra dollars to live somewhere that had a fireplace.
