I just got shipped six copies of the Korean edition of my book. Man, it's weird; I wish I had a jpeg to throw up here so that I could show you. The cover says "Science War" and there are pictures of belching power plants and what looks like stem cells. Plus lots of characters (presumably Korean) that I totally don't understand. My name is on the cover too--in translation. I wish I could write it here but none of the symbols are to be found on my computer keyboard, although the first one looks like a backwards capitalized "E" and another looks like a "4". This whole experience has made me realize just how woefully inadequate my understanding of other cultures often is. Time for some travel... Oh, wait, I don't have any time. Indeed, I am fully aware--and now seems a good time to mention it--that for the past few months or so, my blogging habits have changed dramatically. I.e., they have decreased. It's a function of tons of travel to give various talks and conduct research, combined with massive amounts of work, either on the new book or editing the paperback edition of the last one. Blogging has just slipped through the cracks because I haven't had the time. For that matter, responding to email has become equally spotty. Some of you may have noticed. I am hoping that life will normalize a bit and I will have more blogging time; I am not throwing in the towel. But given that I have an entire book to write this year--198 days to go, actually, according to my last estimate--I don't know how much patterns will change. Here's hoping....
Korean Edition Arrived
Exciting news: I received six copies of the Korean edition of my book, featuring the intriguing 'Science War' cover.
