Tietoja minusta I read. It is a central part of who I am. Many of the books listed have to do with my work, but by no means all. I'm a political scientist, focused on Latin America and the Caribbean (more the latter than the former), and political theory (and the overlap between political theory and the Caribbean -- there's more than you might think).
Tietoja kirjastostani It's mixed. Many of the books are ones I have in my office, some are books I have at home. It's a work in progress. I read science fiction, fantasy, and alternative history for pleasure. Not surprisingly, most of the books in my collection have something to do with my academic interests and work. I also like books of blunders, typos and curiosities (when you have students who tell you Confucius was a major figure in the early development of Western Europe, you need a laugh).

1) no one really liked the book very much, and some people really hated it;
2) the structure, content, and style, which was a conscious experiment, wasn't a very successful one;
3) people really hate seeing Wikipedia listed as a source.
Fair enough! Onward...
Cordially,
Fred Zimmerman
PS to fledgist -- "vastly unauthoritative" was ironic ...
