Reading List

[Jones]

To paraphrase Robert Heinlein...

Specialization is for insects. A man should be able to plan an invasion, butcher a hog, conn a ship, design a building, write a sonnet, balance accounts, build a wall, set a bone, comfort the dying, take orders, give orders, cooperate, act alone, solve equations, analyze a new problem, pitch manure, program a computer, cook a tasty meal, fight efficiently, die gallantly.

These books are some of my "must read" list for any man:
