Ivan Illich

Marion Boyars Publishers Ltd, 2000

Another brilliant, well-written book by Illich!
In this book, much like Deschooling Society, Illich attacks the issue from all sides. He consistenly provides an excellent argument with examples, statistics, and well-done research. Though this book is not quite as fast-paced as Deschooling Society, it is equally ...

The Pygmalion Project, Vol. III: The Idealist (Love & Coercion Among the Types)

Excellent further reading for students of Keirsey
I do not recommend this book as a first choice selection for someone who has never read about Myers-Briggs personality typing. Therefore, I am gearing this review toward readers who are familiar with Myers-Briggs theory, preferably through Dr. David Keirsey's other ...

Nemesis

Jo Nesbo

Another brilliant work by Nesbo
Nemesis is another brilliant success by the Norwegian author Jo Nesbo. His novels starring police inspector Harry Hole are suspenseful and so intricately plotted as to put American authors, even my favorite Michael Connelly, to shame. Nesbo constructs layer upon ...
