    finished The Genome War (James Shreeve), meant to be about sequencing the human genome. More about business management and how to drive yourself insane by antagonising your competition. A decent enough read nontheless if you empathise with Dilbert.

    In the middle of Schopenhaeur's Telescope (Gerard Donovan).
    Two men from the same village, a baker set to digging a grave where he believes he will be put by the militia, and a schoolteacher set to supervise, trying to get one up on each other. Told through some neat short stories, such as the baker describing how he deals with a particularly bad customer, the policeman's wife in terms of "The Art of War".
