While I was at it, I got some other books, just in case it gets colder and I don't want to go out.
I got The Elegant Universe : Superstrings, Hidden Dimensions, and the Quest for the Ultimate Theory because I'm not feeling all that clear on superstring theory and a recent Scientific American article on a theory that described the universe essentially as a hologram whetted my appetite. And I picked up A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius because the title cracked me up, and it, like The Elegant Universe, was a Pulitzer Prize finalist. Those Pulitzer guys tend to have pretty good judgement about that sort of thing.
And about two pounds of comic books and I am good to go for a while.
