Ideas That Changed the World
A Book That (Almost) Changed My Mind: My knee-jerk reaction was to dislike this book for the same reason I dislike the notion of reading a newspaper headline rather than the article, or skimming through the guidebook rather than experiencing a place. It' [... more]

Before Columbus: Exploration and Colonisation from the ...
Columbus as a logical outcome: It is hard to use, in the same sentence, logic and a man who believed both in the basic sphericity of the earth and the existence of the Earthly Paradise. But, all hero-villain dichotomies aside, we shall always be [... more]
