Certainly the books mentioned so far in this thread are worthwhile. My guess is that you would learn things from them. Every single one of them.

You noted earlier that you are familiar with the writers of the books ( well I think that's what you meant but you said arthurs ).

What does that mean exactly? That you have read the books? That you know the writers personally? That you know them by reputation but are not familiar with the material they have written? Received on Sat Jul 01 2006 - 15:40:34 CDT
