Historia
Two American travelers have been killed—one with poison, the other with a knife through the heart—and the only clues at the scene are a woman’s wedding ring and the German word for “vengeance” written in blood. The military surgeon Dr. John Watson is brought in to investigate, along with his clever, arrogant new roommate, Sherlock Holmes.

Historia
Ryland Grace is the sole survivor on a desperate, last-chance mission - and if he fails, humanity and the Earth itself will perish. Except that right now, he doesn't know that. He can't even remember his own name, let alone the nature of his assignment or how to complete it. All he knows is that he's been asleep for a very, very long time. And he's just been awakened to find himself millions of miles from home, with nothing but two corpses for company.

Clever plot, but story was taxing
Revisado: 06-23-23
The plot is original and clever, but the story gets bogged down in a litany of problem-solution-problem-solution etc. I keep accelerating the playback just to get through it. Reader never really doubts the outcome.

Historia
Computer technology has improved exponentially over the last 50 years. But the headroom for bigger and better electronic solutions is running out. Our best hope is to engage the power of quantum physics. “Quantum algorithms” had already been written long before hardware was built. These would enable, for example, a quantum computer to exponentially speed up an information search or crack the mathematical trick behind internet security.

Light on the details, heavy on the filler
Revisado: 05-09-23
About 1/6th of the book explains quantum computing, the rest is history, tangents, and background info.

Historia
Since the time of Voltaire and Rousseau, the secular intellectual has increasingly filled the vacuum left by the decline of the cleric and assumed the functions of moral mentor and critic of mankind. This fascinating portrait of the minds that have shaped the modern world examines the moral credentials of those whose thoughts have influenced humanity.

Johnson plus Davidson = Awesomeness
Revisado: 08-09-21
Such a unique and sorely needed take on the subject. If the rest of Johnson’s work is half as good as this then count me in. Frederick Davidson takes pure delight in the reading, even tho some of the content might have hit a bit close to home. If nothing else, listen to the last 5 minutes where Johnson makes his conclusion. We need a poster with that excerpt in every university in the country.
