Book Log

I read a lot. I've been keeping a book log since the beginning of 1999. I've read 2135 books since then (about 83 books per year).

Below is the list for this year. See complete list.

Currently Reading

Against the Gods
by Peter L. Bernstein I think this book is used in business school. There were a lot of copies in used bookstores in Singapore.
Rationality: From AI to Zombies
by Eliezer Yudkowsky I think I searched for the phrase "the map is not the territory" and wound up on lesswrong.com. "The core background text of LessWrong is the collection of essays, Rationality: A-Z (aka 'The Sequences')." Bought the ebook on Kindle for better portability.
The Associated Press Guide to News Writing (4th Edition)
by Rene J. Cappon Reading this for work. I'm not a journalist, I don't write news articles, but I do write science news releases for EurekAlert about journal articles published in Intelligent Computing.
