Whew! That was a lot of books. Now: what did we leave out? (Mike)
There's no way we can have all these books on the Emerging Scholars Network table @ Urbana 09 (only 5 days away!), but we can invite the 17,000 or so students with which we talk* to dig into the growing on-line resource/learning community which makes up Emerging Scholars Network Blog. So, if you haven't already, please swing by Best Books for Undergrads: Your Picks and join the conversation. And if you have, come back to see what else has been said and to contribute more input, e.g.,
- what you're reading in college now and why
- what you read in college and found of great value (short or long term) and why
- what you wished you read in college, but came upon later ... and why you wished that you had read it earlier
PS. German Terrorists, Eccentric Victorians, Russian Mathematicians, and More (Podcast in which Stan Guthrie and John Wilson talk about favorite books of 2009, posted 12/21/09).
