- Started this week

- The House of Government by Yuri Slezkine . The Russian Revolution and subsequent history through a single building. I am on p. 77
- Enlightenment Now by Steven Pinker. Why the Enlightenment is still important, why life is still good. I am on p. 40.
- 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. 439, slogging through the scholastics.
- Scrivener for Dummies. I am on p. 149. Scrivener is a tool for writers.
- The Drawing of Trump and its Postponement by Fred L. Karpin. I am on p. 39. A classic on the play of the hand in bridge.
