Just a warning...

Be nice to me or I will make you all read the course textbooks I bought today. The titles are deadly enough. "The Handbook of Canadian Public Administration", 556 pages of pure excitement, and not just Policy Analysis, but "BEYOND Policy Analysis: Public Issue Management in Turbulent Times", a slimmer, svelter, paperback volume which claims on the back to include "Discussions of the performance management paradigm and alternative service delivery environments".

Actually, these should be interesting to me on the intellectual level...after all, I picked the course, right, but after a day of school and work I'm not on the intellectual level right now.

You want me to return the favor? I've got the H.W. Janson's History of Art-The Western Tradition in my hand now (well not in my hand, that thing is twice as heavy as a biology textbook)
The book is exactly 999 pages, filled with color slides and plates of historical artifacts, listing all forms of art from beginning of time to things you can pick up from the ground today with critical analyses bringing you through the transformation of time...

...actually that sounds like a jampack of interesting stories......
