What book are you reading?

Posted 09 May 2009 - 06:17 PM

So what book are you reading? I've been reading through Robot Visions a lot. I think I'm going to reread Neuromancer or the Foundation series,

Currently studying Game Physics Engine Development by Ian Millington. Just out of curiosity - interested in building my own game engine rather than using a third-party one.

It depends on where I am.
In the car I am reading the lion the witch and the wardrobe with my ears.

In spare time I read the space trilogy by C.S lewis.
I need to start reading some programming books.

"I was in Nashville, Tennesee last year. After the show I went to a Waffle House. I'm not proud of it, I was hungry. And I'm alone, I'm eating and I'm reading a book, right? Waitress walks over to me: 'Hey, whatcha readin' for?' Isn't that the weirdest fuckin' question you've ever heard? Not what am I reading, but what am I reading FOR? Well, godammit, ya stumped me! Why do I read? Well . . . hmmm . . . I dunno . . . I guess I read for a lot of reasons and the main one is so I don't end up being a fuckin' waffle waitress."

"Everything is Miscellaneous: The Power of the New Digital Disorder" by David Weinberger

Saw a ~~TED~~ Google Talk by the author and was interested... but I am finding the text a little less interesting. Not that the topic is not interesting or the writing is dry, it is just... well I think the ~~TED~~ Google talk summed it up nicely. I guess I wanted more technical details and less high level descriptions.
