First post of 2010

Like everyone else, I haven’t written for a few weeks because I’ve been enjoying spending time with family and friends during an extended holiday. I have little to contribute in the vein of my usual posts because over the break I resolved to read only things that were unrelated to biblical and early Christian studies. Other than finishing Mike Bird’s Are You the One Who is to Come, I managed to keep that resolution successfully. So, here are the books I am reading or have completed. Check them out. They have all been interesting, illuminating, and enjoyable.

Descartes’ Bones: A Skeletal History of the Conflict between Faith and Reason by Russell Shorto

13 Things That Don’t Make Sense: The Most Baffling Scientific Mysteries of Our Time by Michael Brooks

Three Cups of Tea: One Man’s Mission to Create Peace. . . .One School at a Time by Greg Mortenson and David Oliver Relin

The Brain that Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science by Norman Doidge
