What are you reading? March 10, 2018

Here's what I am reading.  Feel free to comment with what you are reading.

• Started this week

• Enlightenment Now by Steven Pinker. Why the Enlightenment is still important, why life is still good.  I am on p. 33.
• Sunvault: Stories of Solarpunk and eco-speculation  by Daniel Jose Older.  Solarpunk is a new and optimistic sub-genre of science fiction.  I am on p. 9
• A New History of Western Philosophy by Anthony Kenny. This is a very good history of the subject, well written and clear.  Kenny follows an unusual strategy in that he takes two approaches: He first covers each era in a more-or-less chronological order, then he looks at the big topics of that era in a systematic way.  I am on p. 420, slogging through the scholastics.
• Scrivener for Dummies. I am on p. 118.  Scrivener is a tool for writers.
