This time I am sending you off to read other people–not that I have nothing to say, but they have really good posts on their blogs this week.
First, and self-explanatory, is a commentary on the dazzling news from the South Pole that the immensity of the universe seems just to have gotten moreso. Here is a wonderfully intelligent and readable-by-the-rest-of-us article by physicist and Episcopal Bishop of Rhode Island Nick Knisely. It is too good to miss. His blog, Entangled States, is a continuing marvel.

Second, and of obvious personal interest to me, is an in-depth review of Dancing Past the Dark–the first that actually discusses the book’s content! For those of you interested in knowing what somebody else thinks about the book, I am passing this along. The blog is Everybody Means Something, which I’ve just discovered, covering a wide range of interests. Fractals, anyone?

Happy reading!
