new books


i finished eats, shoots, and leaves by lynne truss about a month ago. it was a pretty interesting book. made me think about my punctuation a little more. though, it was quite discomforting to know that someone could be so passionate about commas, apostrophes, and periods. in that period i also finished rene descartes' meditations on first philosophy and sophecles' antigone.

next up is the lord's university: freedom and authority at byu which will explore issues of academic freedom (or the lack thereof) at byu over the past twenty years.

    Dear Loyd,
    Just what you need! To read a book that supports all your cynical views of BYU! PERFECT!
