| I believe people would be far less afraid of their own deaths, fewer would strive to prolong their deaths because of a fear of what lies behind the veil, and would mourn their loved ones less if they had a clear-eyed view of what lay beyond. This bea ...more | |

| These short stories, most from authors I'm not familiar with, covered a huge range of the horror genre, and each was a satisfying read in its own way. I read it slowly, savoring. Highly recommended! ...more | |

| This was fascinating! I thought I knew something about The Manhattan Project, but the Oppenheimer film showed me that I really knew nothing. This book, upon which the movie was based, is astonishing in its scope and detail of the life of this odd, fl ...more | |

“It sometimes seems to rub people the wrong way to say anything sympathetic about humanity, positive about our potential influence on Earth or hopeful about our future. How could you not be shocked and alarmed by our jarring, accelerating influence on this planet? We rightfully feel some deep regret, and some shame, at how we have (not) managed ourselves. However, our obligation now is to move beyond just lamenting the job we’ve done as reluctant, incompetent planet-shapers. We have to face the fact that we’ve become a planetary force, and figure out how to be a better one.”
