- I saved this email to read this weekend and I'm glad I did. Last night I went to the theater to see "Bohemian Rhapsody". The last section of the movie covers Queen performing at "Live Aid" at Wembley in 1985. It was amazing to see the huge...

- I wish you had a super like button on your posts. It is brilliant, how much happier people will be if they gave internet and phones and devices rest for long periods of time. You will be more socially engaged. At work, you will engage with the tasks fully. You have...

The classic whale tale! Already enjoying the insightful old-timey prose and the seafaring adventure it describes. [Reviews]

Journalist Michael Booth, a many-years resident of Copenhagen, lightheartedly explores the oft-repeated but little-investigated belief that Scandinavian and Nordic countries are the happiest places on earth. Funny and informative look at the both the up- and down-sides of the five Nordic countries’ differing cultures and public policies. Easy to read and highly recommended. [Reviews]

Robert Wright demonstrates that the Buddhists knew the best way to respond to the human condition long before we understood what causes human suffering in scientific terms.
