I’ve downloaded the whole “Achieving goodness in a complex world ” portion of the social criticism website into my palmtop, for reading in bed.

Tonight’s selections will include Thucydides – Pericles’ funeral oration from The Peloponnesian War, then Albert Camus – Writing in an age of insanity: for truth, liberty and optimism (Nobel lecture)/// and if I swallow that whole, I’ll move on to start on Fyodor Dostoyevsky – Crime and Punishment (Which will surely take me more than one night. 🙂 ) A classic I never got around to in high school…. it seemed ot be offered for reading in all the classes but mine. Long overdue read.
