Stopped reading Siddhartha Mukherjee's The Emperor of All maladies (about the human history of dealing with cancer) becau se 250 pages in, I got bored with the endless cycles of reserahc, funding, politics, funding, research, funding, etc.
I just don;t care.

I have published reviews of the books I read for 9+ years.
Lawrence M. Krauss, physicist, has a new book coming out early May. UK Title - The Known Unknowns. USA Title - The Edge of Knowledge. I follow Krauss on twitter and when he mentioned it I DM'd him to request a review copy and gave him the link to my blog. He contacted his publisher and his agent emailed me a very advance proof copy. I read it. It is awesome. https://rxttbooks.blogspot.com/2023/...ow-far-we.html Bad ass BOOKS! SCIENCE!

check this shit out. sonic life
One of the most exhilirating and unexpected results of reading weird and difficult books and writing reviews for ten years has occurred today, for it was only today I saw that theoretical physicist and author Lawrence Krauss had placed the final paragraph of my review of his latest book, "The Edge of Knowledge," on his personal homepage. https://lawrencemkrauss.com/

The Waste Lands by Stephen King. Book 3 in the Dark Tower series.
I haven't been as engaged with this one as the first two, but it's still good.
