The Bad-ass Librarians of Timbuktu, BookAnd Their Race to Save the World's Most Precious Manuscripts

by Hammer, Joshua
Book - 2018
Loganlib_Brad's rating:
3.5 out of 5 stars
Added Oct 28, 2020

Comment:

I found this gave great insight into the history of Timbuktu and Northern African culture but most prominently the Northern African experience of the War Against Terror. The librarians and ancient manuscripts in question are a useful and fascinating means of introducing the reader to this topic

21 Lessons for the 21st Century, Book

by Harari, Yuval N.
Book - 2018
Loganlib_Brad's rating:
4 out of 5 stars
Added Oct 14, 2020

Comment:

Enjoyed this a lot more than i thought i would. I thought this would be more a loose collection of essays, but it sits together as a whole quite nicely. I particularly liked the section on the ethics of secularism. Also of interest was how Harari would use examples drawn from his home country of Israel to illustrate some of his points.

Why We Sleep, BookUnlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams

by Walker, Matthew P.
Book - 2017
Loganlib_Brad's rating:
4.5 out of 5 stars
Added Sep 6, 2020

Comment:

Really enjoyed this, covers a lot of interesting ground. Definitely gets you to think more seriously about getting a good nights sleep, but also throws light on how little we value good sleep as a society.

The Art of Fermentation, BookAn In-depth Exploration of Essential Concepts and Processes From Around the World

by Katz, Sandor Ellix
Book - 2012
Loganlib_Brad's rating:
4.5 out of 5 stars
Added Jul 28, 2020

Comment:

really impressive breadth of coverage here, so many aspects to the art of fermenting that i had no idea about. For example, from this i learnt about tepache, which is a delicious drink made out of fermented pineapple which dates from Pre-Columbian Mexico. I envision lots of great fermenting projects ahead for me in the near future.
