My Favorite Banned Books
2008-08-14 10:00:00
I've been rereading my favorite books lately--some that I haven't picked up since high school--and enjoying them all over again. I'm not sure if it's because now I'm a married woman but some of them seem to be a lit-tle bit juicier the second time around. I guess I must have been clueless about half of what was going on but at any rate the whole thing got me thinking about how so many of my favorite books have been banned at one point or another for a variety or reasons.You'd be surprised at what gets kicked off the shelves--though a few of these haven't been banned outright but were merely challenged.1. Sylvester and the Magic Pebble by William Steig. I don't know if you've read other books by William Steig but a lot of them are . . . odd. Shrek is one of his creations and let me just say that the movie is an improvement but I really like this little picture book about a donkey that finds a magic pebble and accidentally wishes himself into a rock. Oops.It was banned i...

Quick Update
2008-08-03 16:53:00
Hope to get back to regular posting (how often have I said that?) in coming days, but lots to do this morning so just the usual crap about books:#33 -- "The Boys on the Bus" by Timothy CrouseI've wanted to read this for ages -- Crouse worked alongside Hunter S. Thompson covering the 1972 election and I've always sort of viewed this as a companion volume to "Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail," which remains my all-time favorite political book. This is more a look at how the media covered the election, and it's really, really, really good. Much of it is extremely relevant today.#34 -- "Nowhere Man" by Aleksandar HemonBosnian novelist Hemon is getting touted pretty heavily these days with the release of his new book, so I figured it was time to finally read this, which has been sitting on my shelf for a few years. Not at all what I expected -- I thought it would be much darker, but this, while often grim, is also kind of sweet and poignant. We follow Josef Pronek, a Ukrainian ...

Now, through the rise of e-textbook sales, that may change--lightening both the backpacks and the strain on pocketbooks. Sales of digital books for college students jumped almost 30% from 2006 to 2007.
God Gave Wine: What the Bible Says about Alcohol by Kenneth Gentry

Written by one who doesn’t drink due to health concerns, God Gave Wine takes a non-biased approach to the issue.  What does the Bible really say about alcoholic drink?  Contrary to the popular opinion of many American evangelical Christians, the Bible does not expressly forbid the drinking of alcoholic drinks, such as wine or “strong drink”.  Rather, ...

1. Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali It is rare to find a non-fiction book that is as gripping as a good thriller. This one is in the cannot put it down genre. It is such an amazing story that if written as fiction it would have been beyond belief. Here is a woman who goes from communist Somalia to Saudi Arabia, Ethiopia, Kenya, Germany, Holland and America. She becomes Dutch and nearly loses her citizenship. In the process she is in part the cause of the fall of the government of The Netherlands. Several times she nearly loses her life. She is accorded the highest security protection ever after her friend is murdered in the name of Islam. After 9:11 she renounces her faith and becomes the infidel of her title. She insists that the real Islam is not the religion of peace but the motivator of terrorists. She has devoted her life to exposing the Islamic mistreatment of women. Her description of her own genital mutilation and that of other Somali women is horrific reading. But as well as t...

The Best Triumph (?) Over The Devil... In Books.
2008-07-29 17:14:00
Yesterday, in addition to solving a problem that has bugged me for years and which, having solved, proves that I'm pretty much the smartest person in the world -- I'll tell more about that soon on Thinking The Lions, where I regularly best science-- I also began setting out how books and music and even TV can help us learn how to beat Mephistopheles. Today continues that theme withThe Best Triumph (?) Over The Devil... In Books.I was considering this morning the problem of the "unreliable narrator," something I began thinking of because of today's nominee as well as because of cell phones and doctors and "science," which at this point ought to just simply have those quotes surgically attached.The "unreliable narrator" is a narrator with a compromised point of view -- he or she is a person telling the story you're reading (or watching, I suppose) but for some reason, you as the reader (or watcher) cannot entirely believe them. The narrator may be a child, or have mental problems,...

Predictable
2008-07-23 02:37:00
I probably should have seen this coming: after reacquainting myself with Bernie Rhodenbarr, Noah e-mailed me to say it had inspired him to pick up one of the Burglar books ("The Burglar Who Traded Ted Williams") for the first time in years, and then somehow "Ted Williams" found its way back into my hands. (I didn't read it enough in Albuquerque.) And that wasn't the end of it.#30 -- "The Burglar Who Traded Ted Williams" by Lawrence Block#31 -- "The Burglar Who Thought He Was Bogart" by Lawrence BlockAnd you'd think that was enough, but I started "The Burglar in the Library" this morning. Everything I said before holds; these two may have been my favorite of the series, though that may be because they tackled subjects (sports cards in "Ted," old movies and Eastern Europe in "Bogart") close to my heart. The Burglar books are dangerous in two ways -- they make burglary seem like a really fun career, and worthwhile too, and they make New York seem like a city where everyone exchanges...
Old Friends

#28 -- "The Burglar on the Prowl" by Lawrence BlockBack in college, I spent a couple unscheduled days, broke and broken-down, in a rough part of Albuquerque. I didn't drink at the time, and most of my possessions were in the car in the mechanic's, so I stayed in my hotel room with one book: "The Burglar Who Traded Ted Williams," by Lawrence Block. Having nothing else to do, I read it three straight times, cover to cover. It didn't get old.Since then, I've always been a Bernie Rhodenbarr fan, though I haven't paid much attention in recent years. I picked this up recently for a quick read, and it's still fun. At first I found it enjoyable but not as funny as I found the books some years ago; by the end, though, I was laughing out loud pretty frequently.If you're one of the people who likes to be able to figure out a mystery while you're reading it, you're screwed. Half the crucial characters don't appear until the end. And if you've read any of the previous novels, you'll ...

Travelogue Writing
2008-07-04 08:43:00
Travel writing is a fine art; accepted literary genre that is read. Writers who are gifted with an ability to understand what they see and can breathe life into a place when they narrate their travel experiences. The Internet that is wrongly considered as a pedestal for instantaneous scribbles mixed with emoticons and indecipherable abbreviations has already become a place to find some good travel literature, travelogues and travel stories in addition to online trading of travel services. It can be one of the best display places for travel writers to showcase what their countries have to offer.Travel is prosperity and leisure pursuit, which is a result of many things: history, heritage, culture, natural beauty and a quest to know what is unknown and meet wonderful people.Pakistan is a land of geographical, geological, and natural contrasts and has every thing nature could bestow; from some of the places like Mehr Garh in Balochistan and Harappa in Punjab where some of the initial hu...
30 Essential Books for Industrial Designers
2008-07-03 03:22:00
Image Source: Books by ijsendoorn. As requested and suggested by a few loyal Design Sojourn readers, I have compiled what I think are the essential books that Industrial Designers should either own or read. Now I have one disclaimer, and that is I have intentionally left out the design yearbooks or the ever popular coffee table picture book collections. Simply put, these books don't do much for you except provide visual eye candy. In fact I would go as far as advising you to dump them! The reason is that if you are looking at such books for inspiration, you will likely be recreating the same looks in one form or another. Not only that, because it is a publication, it takes time to get printed and out there. So by the time you are reading it, it is already outdated. So going forward, I have divided the books into 3 categories, namely Thinking, Process and Designer Skills. So without further adieu here is the list, in no particular order of importance, for you to enjoy!

#21 -- "The Professor and the Madman" by Simon WinchesterI've read a bunch of Winchester's books, but ('til now) not the one that probably drew the most attention. If you somehow missed this when it was all the rage a decade ago, it's the parallel stories of the editor of the Oxford English Dictionary, and one of the OED's main contributors, who happened to be mad as a hatter. It's livelier than a lot of Winchester's books, and good fuel for big nerds like me. Enjoyed it a whole bunch. He strains a bit to draw connections between the two characters early on, but so what? It manages to make the creation of a dictionary sound exciting as hell, which is no small feat.#22 -- "Tortilla Flat" by John SteinbeckProbably hadn't read anything by Steinbeck since high school. I just remember overwhelming depressing-ness, rightly or wrongly -- this, in a stack of books lent to me by the Ski Bum last year, is lotsa fun though. Drinking and carousing among the poor of depression-era Califo...
BEST BOOKS ATTACKING MODERNISM -- OLD, NEW, AND POST-
2008-06-12 19:58:00
BEST BOOKS ATTACKING MODERNISM -- OLD, NEW, AND POST-One of the best books showing the incompatibility of real christianity with the old liberalism was J. Gresham Machen's very fine work Christianity and Liberalism.One of the best books showing the incompatibility of christianity with what used to be called the new liberalism, i.e. existentialism, was Cornelius Van Til's brilliant work Christianity and Barthianism.One of the best showing the incompatibility of christianity with the latest liberalism (today) is Gene Edward Veith, Jr.'s Postmodern Times.Another way of naming the three phases is old modernism, new modernism, and postmodernism.Machen and Van Til were conservative Presbyterians. Veith is a conservative Lutheran. Machen was the founder of Westminster Seminary and Van Til was one of the profs there. Veith in 2006 became the Academic Dean (or Provost) at Patrick Henry College.John Frame noted that the "and" in the title of Machen's and Van Til's books is the di...

1. Minority Report by Carl R. TruemanCarl Trueman is to church history what Fred was to fast bowling. He is the best for enjoyment and he sends down some bouncers too. Carl is a great read. he is a challengingly intellectual historian and theologian. He will make you think, provoke you and make you laugh. Part one of this book is the longer more formal papers. This is not the easiest of starts but keep going. the fun is part two. Yes, Carl can make history fun. He is the best historian I have read for linking the past to the present. I think he has convinced me that I too am a Zen Calvinist and like him I recommend the Psalter. All human life is there. Read this book. be challenged and smile.

I emailed a good friend who's going to have a trip to the Philippines with three little kids in about two weeks from now. Her and I were sort of comparing notes about what and what-not to bring on the trip and exchanging ideas about how to entertain our kids so they are less fussy on the long flight. I know from reading a lot online about mothers who have travelled with little kids that things like puzzles, drawing and doodle pads, coloring books, little story books, and little toys make for great entertainment for kids so I'm starting to gather those things now too. Sorry about writing so much about our upcoming trip. Can you all tell I'm having mixed emotions about this? I am very excited about it, and yet I can't help getting anxious and a little worried- mostly because I have never been on a long plane ride with my precious ones. I just hope and pray they'll be relaxed and sweet the whole time.

Powerhouse Books - NYC Go-Go
2008-06-06 18:45:00
Slava Mogutin, the notorious Russian dissident-turned-art star and creator of the critically acclaimed Lost Boys (powerHouse Books, 2006), returns with his second monograph,   NYC Go-Go, a tribute to the golden age of New York City nightlife. The once glittering club world had all but disappeared by the time Mogutin arrived in America in the mid-1990s. Under Mayor Rudy Giuliani?s controversial ?Quality of Life? campaign, downtown clubs paid the ultimate price: owners were branded community pariahs and paid crippling fines for alleged disruptiveness, while others were prosecuted for criminal acts; many legendary night spots were wiped off the map altogether. In his new book, Mogutin documents the ever-shrinking downtown gay scene, taking us inside a few remaining joints like the Cock, Boysroom, and Mr. Black. NYC Go-Go is a raunchy journey into the underworld inhabited by hustlers, go-go boys and their admirers. Some of them are ?rough trade??thugs with criminal pasts, bust...
