      A Year in Reading: Iľja Rákoš

      Dec 23, 2020

      I’d been out of the hospital following (let’s call it) treatment for COVID-19 about a month. My hospital ward of 50 patients had one oxygen concentrator. Despite my blood-oxygen saturation levels of 90%, that device wasn’t coming my way anytime soon.

      How I Picked the Five Books for This Summer’s Selection

      May 27, 2017

      SUMMER IS A GREAT TIME TO escape: to the beach, to the mountains or to the world of a great book. This year, I have found myself drawn even more than usual to books that take me outside, and I don’t mean the great outdoors. These books push me out of

      Black, Jonathan

      2006:Yes, You Can!: Behind the Hype and Hustle of the Motivation Biz. New York: Bloomsbury Publishing.

      Refreshing! The author is much too cynical about motivational speakers, but it is nice to get someone actually questioning them. Too many people assume motivational speakers are 100% perfect. I enjoy how he profiles many of the main motivational speakers: a great survey. Certainly, very interesting and definitely a novel topic for a book.

      Burns, Eric

      2007:Virtue, Valor, Vanity: The Founding Fathers and the Pursuit of Fame.

      New York: Arcade Publishing.

      Burns managed to pull off the delicate balance of seeing the founding fathers for what they are (not idealized versions of them), while still honoring and revering them. He succeeds at portraying them as human, but also as noble. Intellectual but not overly high brow; thought provoking, yet very readable.

      Dangarembga, Tsitsi

      1988: Nervous Conditions. New York, NY: Seal Press.

      A deep, thoughtful, layered book. I'm so glad my Shona friend recommended this book. Genuine and real and very thought provoking.

      Hodapp, Christopher and Alice Von Kannon

      2008:Conspiracy Theories and Secret Societies for Dummies.

      Hoboken, NJ: Wiley Publishing.

      The subject matter is immensely fascinating and the work itself surely fed my interest in these wonderful subjects. The authors are definitely biased against conspiracists -- those who believe in conspiracy theories. This strong bias detracted from the work; a more neutral tone could have served it better. The authors definitely have an axe to grind and though they accuse conspiracists of projecting, maybe they are projecting onto conspiracists. I felt sometimes they went too far in condemning the conspiracists. Nevertheless, I love how engrossing and informative the book was.
