Good luck with the move Jeremy. I love a good science book. A lot unfortunately are just boring even though the subject is interesting. My two most recent recommended reads are ‘Why we sleep’, by Matt Walker which is self explanatory and ‘Proust and the Squid’ by Maryanne Wolf. Fantastic book that is actually about the history and science of how we read and how our brains are not designed for reading but that we have to ‘piggyback’ on other brain systems and integrate them to read. Such a good book.

Good luck in your move to the Midwest! Great briefs and look forward to reading Weiner’s book. Nice reference on the connection between Perkins and Rawlings.

What takes you to Minnesota? Hope your move is as smooth as possible! And I've had Foreign Affairs in my TBR but need to bump it up.

Thanks Lauren! I'm originally from MN and my wife is from Iowa, so we're heading back home to the midwest. :)

Speaking of Pulitzer winners, I just embarked on re-reading "Summer for the Gods" by Edward Larson, which won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 1998. It was assigned reading for a college course and I haven't picked it up since then. It's about the Scopes Trial, whose 100th anniversary is this year in July. Seemed apropos, and it's pretty good reading so far.
