A Look Ahead

Occasionally, when looking for books to read and recommend, serendipity strikes. First, as your convener, I'll break tradition, and select the book for our June meeting: The Impossible Man: Roger Penrose and the Cost of Genius.

Thanks to member Ed Sproles for his recommendation. It is confirmed by a most authoritative source. I'm searching the MIT Press to recover a list of Best Books of 2024 which included this latter book as well as two recent reads: Frostbite and On the Move. This affirmation tells me we're well reflecting our roots.
