A couple of publishing events of possible interest to CV readers:

  1. As an interesting experiment in web publishing, Robert Frenay's new book Pulse is being fully published online. The book is about the future of computers, technology, and complex systems, so its appearance in blog form makes a certain kind of sense.

  2. Morse and Feshbach's Methods of Theoretical Physics, a classic textbook and reference, has been reprinted after being out of circulation for a while. At almost $300, it's not really an impulse buy, but you do get two volumes of about 1000 pages each. The reprinting was done under the supervision of Mark Feshbach, son of co-author Herman Feshbach.

Truth in advertising compels me to admit that I have not read either of these books! Nor I am getting anything for mentioning them, so it's not really "advertising." But both events are interesting.
