Recently read
- Agile Game Development—Build, Play, Repeat 2nd ed C Keith. Lots of good anecdotes, presupposes knowledge of the subject area.

- Siden sammet M Lang. An impressively tangled weave.
- Tre små gummor M Lang. [Reread] And here we move into the distant past from the 1960s, with plentiful period markers.
- En främmande man M Lang. Very atmospheric.
- En kodex för universitet och högskolor: Grundläggande principer och kärnvärden T Ekberg & A Söderbergh Widding. A useful overview of how things work and what people think.

eller 1/60-dels bågminut...
jag kommer inte kunna komma på måndag btw. min vän kunde inte styra om planerna. hoppas ni får trevligt!
Jag gillar Martins teori bättre måste jag säga. Men mest för att jag tycker "båg" är ett så underbart uttryck.
