While the book was interesting enough as I was reading it, I have to admit that I got to the end not entirely understanding what he was trying to say with the whole book. He's talking about ways that computers can completely rework the ways that schools are run and the way children are educated, but I didn't feel like I left the book really understanding what his proposal for "rethinking school" was. Papert is the inventor of the Logo programming language, which some of you may remember as the "turtle" language you used to draw shapes on a computer screen in elementary school. He's also done a lot of work with Lego (it is no coincidence that Lego Mindstorms share a name with his 1980 book). He provides some very interesting anecdotes of children working with Logo and Lego and does manage to delve quite a bit into how children use these tools/toys, so I think the book is valuable for these insights, but it felt a little disjointed to me and didn't seem to spend as much time rethinking schools as I expected it to. Interesting, but I wish I'd been able to read Mindstorms instead - that seems to be his most famous/important work.

Brian Ma brianma — This book has a fairly interesting premise-- comparing the life of a slave to how our relationship is with Christ. Pretty thought provoking. We'll be discussing it in our small group.

While at times I found Turnbull's character to be bordering on obnoxious, I could sympathise with her plight as a struggling Australian expat coming to terms with a French partner and a lifestyle where she would always be considered foreign. Despite Turnbull's negativity, the book did make me want to visit Paris again and see for myself if what Turnbull says is true.

Dmitry Kovalenko _ust_ — Since the 1970's, a space-time anomaly known as The Breach has been emitting pieces of advanced technology. Now it has provided a device that allows the user to travel seventy years into the future, and what the Breach scientists find there is a destroyed world. Paige Campbell and her team give this information to the President, and are ambushed after leaving the White House. Paige has time to get out a message to a colleague, who contacts Travis Chase, a former member of the Breach team. Travis embarks on a mission to rescue Paige and to find out what will happen to the world. This is actually the second book in the Breach series. I haven't read the first, but this one has enough summary to keep readers from being lost. Ghost Country is a great thriller that moves along at a fast pace. The depictions of the post-apocalyptic future world are very good. It is not too strong on the character development, but it accomplishes its goal as a light, exciting read. I will want to go back and read the first book in the series.

Kim Hey kimseran2248a9 — Okay, this is supposed to be a post-apocalyptic struggle for survival of the human race, but Philipson has taken what could have been an X-rated sex romp and turned it into not only a good science fiction saga, but an R-rated romance as well. And the bad guys (aliens) aren't all that stereotypical either. Like any intelligent race, they have their problems and good points, but they do have a basic trait that makes them something to be avoided unless you're a lot tougher then they are. Their early story is told through the eyes of a bureaucrat with a boss from hell and a shrew for a wife. The story has two segments: one in the "near future" and the second 200 years after that. I love stories with a "sweep of history" in them and this one doesn't disappoint. If I had to fault the story anywhere, it would be not enough conflict/suspense for the humans in the first half. There's some, but not really enough for my taste. The alien story line makes up for it as does the second half, so I'll forgive the author and not subtract a star in my rating. I've found it at Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004NIFSXO Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view...
