Well, I just finished Infinite Powers: The Story of Calculus - The Language of the Universe, by Steven Strogatz. Really enjoyed it, interesting for an overview of calculus history and how it affects everyday life.
I think I'll start 2024 reading by a reread of Tolkien's lotr + silmarillion. I, of course, already read it but one it was +20 years ago and two I read a French translation at the time and I want to read the original thing.
Why are you going to skip the poor Hobbit? What did the poor Hobbitses do to you?
I used to be terrible at Calculus, but found it exciting. Not going to specifically look for it, but will check it out if it ever crossed my paths. ๐
