Tasty Brain Fodder
via Matt comes a link to Heckler & Coch, a site which in turn links to all sorts of tasty things. Among them is "A Brief The History of The Book" by Sam Vaknin, who seems to have a fairly wide-ranging intellect.
Long-time peterme readers may recall an extended thoughtwander of mine on The Form of the Book (scroll down to September 14, 1999), where I puzzle over people's obsessions with paper tomes. If you scroll up to September 26th, you'll see some follow-up thoughts.
