- Nice interview with Garrett Keizer, author of a book called Privacy. Interesting take on a classic. I just wish the interviewer wouldn't keep calling it a buke.
- A flap over Judith Butler? Do tell. The referenced work by Nussbaum is the best part of this in terms of figuring out what Butler is all about. The controversy over the award of the "Adorno Prize" to Judith Butler. Charlatan???
- Jared Diamond's Guns, Germs and Steel is one of the canonical books of modern historical study, and very useful to any debater. NPR has at it:
Understanding History With 'Guns, Germs, And Steel'
- 12 Things Students Should Never Do on Social Media. Some of these are obvious, but forensicians are nonetheless guilty of a bunch of them. When I hire these days, Facebook is my first stop. You've been warned. Again.
- Is Every Single Subject Taught in High School a Mistake? Not a flip article. Shockingly it suggests that students should learn how to write and to defend a point of view. Yep.
