SocraticGadfly: I’ve been reading a lot, and reviewing a lot

I’ve been reading a lot, and reviewing a lot

Despite me giving harsh reviews on Amazon to some political books that are neoconservative screeds, and shooting down some religiously-driven books that purported to be more academic than they are (Intelligent Design and Rodney Stark’s sociology), I’ve now made it to the top-3,000 circle of reviewers. (Amazon gives you kudo points for each web browser who says your review of a book was helpful, but you get a ding, albeit smaller in weight, for each person who says you are unhelpful.)

Anyway, almost anything nonfiction is potentially readable — and reviewable — by me. So are some nature and travel videos and classical music CDs.
