Afterword and Suggested Reading
Thanks for the info. I’ll dip my toes into the first few links, but when I decide to digest the material in its entirety, I’m going to need to get my hands on a physical copy. I don’t do super-long reads in e-format. At least, not until I get a kindle or some other portable book reader.
