Week Six



I'm still plugging along with writing and revising. My main focus right now is on the introduction and chapter two (Pattern). My bibliography continues to expand. I found a wonderful book today on Pascal's Triangle - a pretty significant treatment by A. W. F. Edwards Sc.D. of Cambridge. I'll be able to use very little of it in my book, but it is giving me a very deep background.





In other reading, I've been looking at Agnesi to Zeno by Sanderson Smith, Emily Dickinson and the Art of Belief by Roger Lundin, and Lives of the Modern Poets by Pritchard - among other works.


I also keep dipping into Hofstadter and Borges and am eager for Hofstadter's new book I am a Strange Loop to come out. Reviews I've read make it sound like it revisits GEB quite significantly.
