I’ve mentioned his name before on this blog, Steven Johnson.
Go find a book by him – he’s written about language, culture, careers, where ideas come from…I can’t even describe the insight he brings to things.
But…this morning marks a new day in the RID project. I’ve been holding on to this one for…too long. The subject really didn’t work for me, but I’m such a huge fan of the author, I kept it because I was going to read it….
someday.
No more. Atop the RID pile it goes. Hopefully, the next person who gets it will be as inspired by the author as I’ve been.
Albeit in other works.
The power of books, and the art of letting go. I love
classic books and you’re right, it’s best to share our treasures.
