Blogging the Future
The new Carnival of Tomorrow is up.
In response to my Apple vs. books post, they plug electronic paper, which would certainly be nice. But I'd settle for online access. The problem with telling students that they don't need books is that too many of them already believe that everything important is online, when hardly anything published before 1995 and not in the public domain is in fact available.
Let me use this occasion to again plug Liberty Fund's great Library of Economics and Liberty, featuring searchable, full-text versions of classic works like The Wealth of Nations.
