    Serendipity! In an effort to shake myself out of my reading slump, I
    grabbed this very book to re-read. It's going well (again) so far, but
    it's early.[1]

    It was the first WJW book I read, and it is still my favorite of his,

    [1] So, still slumping.

    I did successfully finish this, though it took me nearly a month. It was excellent again - so many ideas, in such a neat setting.
