I finished reading Cod: A Biography of the Fish That Changed the World and am most of the way through Eat the Rich and The Best American Science Writing 2001. I made another trip to the bookstore this week and picked up Lennon Remembers, A Fish Caught in Time: The Search for the Coelacanth, and the latest copy of Scientific American.

Cod was truly an excellent book; I highly recommend it. It’s incredible to learn how much of our lives have been shaped by a fish. Mark Kurlansky is a tremendous author and I can’t wait to read Salt: A World History.
