I'm pretty sure this book will make me pretty angry, based on the reviews of those who have read it. But I'm hoping there will also be some good points that I can incorporate into my ever-changing, vague fixit scheme for the US education system. There are definitely plenty of kids out there who have been taught that their mediocrity is great - how can we encourage students to strive for academic achievement and find something to love about learning? Maybe I just want to create a modern tribe of philologists...

I listened to this entire series (including Tears of the Giraffe, Morality for Beautiful Girls, The Kalahari Typing School for Men, The Full Cupboard of Life, In the Company of Cheerful Ladies, Blue Shoes and Happiness, and The Good Husband of Zebra Drive) in the unabridged audiobooks narrated by Lisette Lecat. Ms. Lecat is from South Africa, and her African lilt adds to the enjoyment of the books. The books themselves give you a feel for life in Botswana and make you want to visit. As for the detective agency, Mma Ramotswe always finds solutions to her cases that are fair for everyone.

Starship Troopers is, in my opinion, one of the three best military sci-fi novels ever written. It shares that distinction with Ender's Game and Old Man's war. It's also a good primer on, in the books own words, "moral philosophy". Though it's main story is about Johny Rico's time in the Mobile Infantry and their fight against the pseudo-arachnids (the bugs) most of the novel is the musings of Johny on morals, primarily through his remembrances of his "History and Moral Philosophy" teacher in high school. The basis of morality according to Heinlein (through his characters) is spelled out in the middle of Chapter 12: "Morals - all correct moral rules derive from the instinct to survive; moral behavior is survival behavior above the individual level - as in a father who dies to save his children." What Starship Troopers is trying to get across to teens, and really anyone who reads the book, is that morality, and by extension any society that claims to be moral, is based on self sacrifice for the group. At it's heart is self sacrifice for family, then self sacrifice for clan, then self sacrifice for city, then nation or ethnicity, then humanity. This is what allows society. This is why Survivor "tribes" fail to thrive. Without putting others ahead of self there is no morality or society. There is only a group of people each trying to get ahead, and those groups are always self-destructive. Starship Troopers has taken a lot of flack over the years for encouraging military enlistment. But Heinlein isn't trying to get youth to enlist, or at least not only, he is trying to teach people that the drive behind enlistment, self sacrifice for the good of society, is the cornerstone of a moral society. Each chapter heading has a quote which gives you a clue as to the content of that chapter, however the final chapter instead uses quotes to remind you what the point of the whole novel was, in case you missed it. From chapter 13: Am I my brother's keeper? -- Genesis IV:9 How think ye? If a man have an hundred sheep, and one of them be gone astray, doth he not leave the ninety and nine, and goeth into the mountains, and seeketh that which is gone astray? -- Matthew XII:12 How much then is a man better than a sheep? -- Matthew XII:12 In the Name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful . . . whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind. -- The Koran, Surah V, 32

My youngest daughter loves to grab flyers at the library and tote them around. Yesterday's flyer was titled, "What You Can Do About Global Warming". I figured I'd add the books from the flyer to my to read list. Maybe I'll start a Green reading list in honor of Earth Day.

Anarchist Voices: An Oral History of Anarchism in America is a real treasure. It's more than 450 pages long, but I couldn't put it down. The book allowed me to escape into the lives of the real participants of the Anarchist movement of North America in its previous heyday of the 1890s-1930s. Originally published in 1995, Paul Avrich interviewed hundreds of Anarchists and former Anarchists who were mainly in their eighties and nineties in the 1970s, the majority dying within a few years of the interviews. I was especially impressed by this, since it gave hundreds of people who had led amazing lives a sort of last memoir before they passed, much in the same style as Working by [by whom?]. It is divided into six sections covering much of the American Anarchist movement. It is mainly centered around the east coast, especially New York. They are 1) Pioneers, which focuses on relatives and close friends of the famous Anarchists like Alexander Berkman and Ben Reitman, 2) Emma Goldman, who was hugely influential and left a strong impression on everyone interviewed 3) Sacco and Venzetti, which details mostly Italian Anarchist experiences around the famous trials and frame-up of the Italian immigrants, 4) Schools and Colonies, which focus on the Modern School movement like the Ferrer school or the Stelton colony in which Anarchists tried to build communities and separate themselves into a lifestyle, 5) the Ethnic Anarchists, focusing on different groups which really brought ideological Anarchism to the United States, like the Russians, Jews, Spanish, and Italian immigrants, 6) the 1920s and beyond, which links the activities after the big decline on the US Anarchist movement after the 1920s until the 1960s and the rise of the "new anarchist movement" starting in the 1980s. What really struck me about this book was how similar some of the arguments of the Anarchist movement were in the past to those of the present. Past divisions between sub-groups were detailed in the text as well. As Avrich explains, the main split was between the Anarcho-syndicalists/communists and the Anarcho-individualists. Today, the main split is between the Anarcho-syndicalists/communists and the eco-anarchists. The discussion also includes people who got burnt out on anarchists because they thought the anarchists were ineffective. Many do not regret their involvement in the movement and look back on the years they spent in the movement as the best years of their lives. In the end, the book is very inspiring because so many of the interviewees still call themselves Anarchists and see that the fight for a better world will continue no matter what. Many of them remain idealists and are hopeful that the world they have worked towards will come about someday. They have hope despite having seen the world nearly destroy itself, supposed comrades (like the Communists) betray them, and enough bickering to make anyone cynical. Many of them had not been involved in the Anarchist Movement for many years, or had simply been involved in book clubs or discussion groups that passed on the ideas. And yet they are still committed to the idea that all humans should be free of oppression and that no government can make you free no matter where you are on this earth.

It's about OIL, so how could you not love it? But there's a little too much about the people involved, and not quite enough about the sweeet, sweet crude itself. Less time with convenience store cashiers, more in the bowels of the delayed coker!

This book is both inspiring and disheartening. Birk's Joyride is a real world example of how incremental change can be. I say disheartening because it is sad that bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure is still so lacking after people like Birk have been fighting for it for years. At the same time, it is an inspiration because those small efforts do make a difference. I wish more city planners, highway department employees, etc. would read this book.
