More recent reading...

Following on from my April post, I've also read...


Factfulness, Hans Rosling (Really very good, I'm recommending it to people).

The Thrilling Adventures of Lovelace and Babbage, Sydney Padua (Good once you get into it, but a lot of words),

Mrs Bradshaw’s Handbook, Terry Pratchett (I keep finding books by Pterry I haven't read - this is of course a spinoff from Raising Steam)

The Massacre of Mankind, Stephen Baxter, (Baxter in sequelspinner mode, this follows on from, and tweaks the tail of, Wells' The War of the Worlds).

Probably, Approximately Correct, Leslie Valiant, (Not great, but useful, about machine learning and evolution).
