Read recently: Burr, The Final Solution, Aegypt, Logicomix

Possibly some other stuff. Since I’ve started working, though, I’ve had less time to read and less time to write / think about books. Shame.

    What did you think of Logicomix? My company published it, and I’m a big fan.

    Ha, no kidding!

    I liked it a lot. I liked the way it dramatized the connections among the work of Frege, Russell, Godel, and (least obviously) Wittgenstein. Russell is such a charming character. The thing was done with surprisingly little compromise on the ideas.

    If it does well you should try to sell a comic version of Godel Escher Bach.
