a bookish walk to work
Good listening on the walk to work this morning - a couple of bookish audio adventures; this feature from NPR's On The Media about the present and future of books and this programme from Studio 360 about Moby Dick.

compare and contrast
Not many people would argue that creating something useful, distinctive and successful requires hard work. Though I might argue with this particular definition of working hard. I would definitely take issue with the idea that constantly hanging out with people from your industry is a good ...

SPIEGEL Interview with Umberto Eco: 'We Like Lists Because We Don't Want to Die' "The list is the origin of culture. It's part of the history of art and literature. What does culture want? To make infinity comprehensible. It also wants to create order -- not always, but often. And ...
