What books to buy for christmas
Every year I buy myself a bunch of books for Christmas. Suggestions for this year? Technology, startups, business, mind-opener, fictions, you name it.
The Mapping of the Heavens by Peter Whitfield - http://www.powells.com/biblio/9780876544754
The Macmillan Visual Dictionary - http://www.amazon.com/The-Macmillan-Visual-Dictionary-Illust...
Logicomix: An Epic Search for Truth - http://www.amazon.com/Logicomix-An-Epic-Search-Truth/dp/1596...
The Complete Calvin and Hobbes - http://www.amazon.com/Complete-Calvin-Hobbes-Bill-Watterson/...
If you like that then finish the series (3 or 4 books), then branch out into Nivens' related Known Space stories: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Known_space
That should keep you entertained for awhile.
