I remember seeing Small Worlds and thinking it would be a good read. I had forgotten about it. I read Sync by Strogatz and fount it fascinating. It actually lead to a trading system, but I couldn't get it to work at the time.

Don't remember seeing The Sciences of the Artificial. I will try to find it and browse it.

Same for The Psychology Of Everyday Things.

The Tipping Point: How Little Things Can Make a Big Difference is probably a must read, and is on my stack of books to read.

The Evolution of Cooperation is something that i read long ago I think and I liked it. Might be worth browsing the new edition again.

I Robot is good, but probably don't have time to read it. :(

Thanks.
 
"I think we ought to read only the kind of books that wound and stab us. If the book we are reading doesn't wake us up with a blow on the head, what are we reading it for? ...we need the books that affect us like a disaster, that grieve us deeply, like the death of someone we loved more than ourselves, like being banished into forests far from everyone, like a suicide. A book must be the axe for the frozen sea inside us." - Franz Kakfa

"Always reading never read."

Ouch... :cool: ...:D

Although I wanted to write a book on USG bankruptcy, I regret that I didn't...My notes are lost and long gone somewhere in cyber space.
 
On the topic of books, am I the only one who still swears to real paper and not electronic books?

Sure, it would be fantastic to have all my books accessible in electronic format both for reference and mobility, but I really enjoy getting away from electricity and feel the paper in my hands. It is good for my soul.

I may be ready to compromise with books of a more technical nature, but I don`t see myself reading fiction on a tablet anytime soon.
