Random note #8674 - a book you might enjoy

[anonymous]

Hi!

You don't know me, and I'm no longer sure how I happened across your live journal, but I'm a math/physics fan too! Unfortunately, due to various pressuers and shitty profs, I quit physics for semiotics.

But I digress. Recently I read a book you might enjoy by Neal Stephenson called "Anathem". Fiction, smattering of science fiction, easy on the science. Some cosmology treated in a philosophical rather than a hard-science way.

New book, so best to borrow.

Hope you like it!

That's funny you should mention him. My advanced quantum theory prof (who brought hope to the teaching aspect of the higher-level math/physics - he is a young genius who I hope to inspire toward in terms of teaching) recommended a book by him as well. Although it was called: Cryptonomicon.

Take care ;) and please name some more books.
